The exhibition...

These are not the best photos (I intend to take much better ones, not with phone).

Dress

Diseased dress...

Made it myself!

Stitching around, the collar and sleeve s to reflect idea of skin diseases like impetigo and eczema.

Diseased shirt

Diseased shirt... made the shirt also!!

Stiched diseases around places where your skin disease would spread...

Shelves...

Diseased shelves... With a lovely book about skin diseases at the top, it was fully gross and interesting.

Diseased items

Diseased cuff, diseased pocket, diseased blanket.


Disease specimens...

Impetigo, atopic eczema, rosacea and dermatitis...

I did also mean to have these in petridishes, which I did for the exhibitions, but they didn't arrive in time for marking...

Having a look at the photos for ideas on how to present my show...things in boxes/ containers, things on shelves, hanging, suspended etc...how to present text...how to arrange objects...
