Is an invitation to pause.
To breathe in fully and out slowly.
To sense the body.
To listen to yourself.
To notice what you notice.
Using paper, thread, paint, and the landscape of dance, Victoria Robinson's installation of 143 life size suspended paper dresses holds softly the power of repetitious grief experience and the power to consciously stop.
Victoria Robinson is an artist, bodyworker/massage therapist, arts professional & designer.
In my art practice I work with painting, mark-making, paper, words, dance, olfactory ambience & dress design to create personal narrative installations, change the feeling of a space & change/connect to my feelings within space. This installation is my most personal work to date. Each of the 143 dresses represents a cycle where I hoped to get pregnant, but didn't, until I stopped.
The vimeo video attached is projected onto one of the dresses as part of the installation.
