CUT UPS

Fashion is so much more than just picking out clothing. 

​Fashion is the sacred process of adorning ourselves in a chosen power.

My current project, CUT UPS, is a representation of the myriad of influences in my life, from literature and punk music to catholic mysticism and western iconography .

Each piece is a poem constructed through vintage/antique textiles, animal-based ornamentation, tokens and talismans. Each piece is a many-angled access point into the strange brain layers and memories that define our exterior representation. 

Getting dressed in these pieces is an ongoing act of resistance, rebellion, self-discovery and self-love. An upcoming photography project will further extrapolate the idea of evolving into a new, third form, by combining the right-now with something that has existed, however dormant, for quite some time.

After all, as William Burroughs said, "when you cut open the present, the future leaks out." 

(To learn more about the origin of cut-ups and the inspiration for the project, listen to the Love and Radio podcast episode about Genesis P. Orridge here.)
