TEMPORARY BOUDOIR/ STUDIO

i don't have to write anything or?



looks like i have to...
on december 6th, 2008, saturday, 6-9 pm
at F+F schule für kunst und mediendesign
flurstr. 89, 8047 zürich
the project "temporary boudoir/ studio" from mariela gemisheva

the text from the invitation:
the challenge to go to zürich and be provoked by the works of artist such as sylvie fleury and pipilotti rist...

looking at their works with the eyes from the vantage point of fashion desogner i am at exploring a new venue for interaction between fashion and art where fashion is using the aura of art while art is using the attributes associated with fashion. that is
actually the ultimate statement of my work as an artist.

by symbolically transferring my own studio from sofia to zürich and by adapting it to be a kind of a decor, which is itself a commentary on the works of sylvie fleury, pipilotti rist as well as my own, the products of this atrange communication actually become pieces of clothing and conceptual objects that are kind of self- portraiture as an artist inspired by the works of sylvie fleury and pipilotti rist. they exist within an installation in a temporary boudoir/studio space.
