So I love this current exhibition in New York at MAD - the Museum of Art and Design!
The theme of Remixing the Ordinary is so creatively expressedBesides the beautiful LP butterflies above, how about this ball gown made from yellow gloves, turned inside out:
And this "coral"is made from buttons! 
Second Lives - Remixing the Ordinary is on till February 2009!
Wow, these people have a LOT of patience, besides being creative.
ReplyDeleteI love how S African artist also make handbags, etc from LPs.
The coral is phenomenal!
very original creation!
ReplyDeleteYou do find the most interesting things!
ReplyDeleteWow, those ballgowns are just AMAZING!
ReplyDeleteI love the butterflies, too.
The repurposing philosophy also resonates with me; I wish we could do more with the everyday stuff that land in our wastebins daily ... Love the glove dress and those LP butterflies! (locally I've seen them turned into bookcovers and handbags)
ReplyDeleteLove that gown! WOW :)
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness! i just love those butterflies. gorgeous. i wonder if they can be purchased.
ReplyDeleteHi Denise. Sorry I haven't commented in so long! I love this combination of photos...so pretty.
ReplyDeleteAh, I love this.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea behind the pieces, and that the objects are so completely transformed into extraordinary things.
ReplyDeleteThe glove/dress is as beautiful as anything seen during fashion week
