2005 Art to Wear 3

In this book photographer Asy Asendorf interpretes and stages my Art to Wear creations of 2001 to 2005.

The textile creations of Art to Wear are autonomous works, which get their meaning and content from the human body, its movements and the individual interpretation of the Art to Wear dress by its wearer.
