Have you guys seen these amazing costumes yet? They’re created by artist Nick Cave {not this Nick Cave}. Mr. Cave is Associate Professor and Chairman of the Fashion Department at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and he creates these outrageous costumes influenced by African art & culture. They transcend textile & costumes really, they’re sculptural, performance art pieces. Nick says, “I believe that the familiar must move towards the fantastic. I want to evoke feelings that are unnamed, that aren’t realized except in dreams.”
I just found this video over at Teesha Moore’s website.
