"2.6.5 Mascha Mioni
Growing up in Switzerland, Mascha Mioni is a painter whose oil paintings on canvas were exhibited all over Europe. Later in 1986, as she studied dress-making, she started to develop silk paintings and design silk dresses. Her artistic dresses were shown in different places in the world, including Germany, United Kingdom, Italy and United States. Together with six other textile artists, Mioni published a series of three books “Art To Wear” from 1990 to 2005.
