Exhibition 5 | PUGMENT
Display Name: Magnetic Dress
Holding period: Monday, April 8, 2019-Sunday, April 14
Holding time: 10:00 to 20:00
Place: Basement 2 floor
We will hold an exhibition of the project "Magnetic Dress" by Tokyo-based fashion label PUGMENT.
PUGMENT has so far clipped fashion advertisements and printed on industrial materials used for building advertisements to make clothes "Spring 2018", "IMAGE" made of ash made of old-fashioned military wear, etc. Using various methods such as photography and performance, I have extracted the relationship between clothes, people, cities, and society, and have produced and presented a collection.
In addition, in this TOKYO ART BOOK FAIR: Ginza Edition, I am in charge of design and production of the staff uniform.
"Magnetic Dress" is a project that has been continuously produced since PUGMENT was established.
Take a picture of clothes falling on the street with a smartphone and print the picture on transfer paper. The heat transfer of the transfer paper to the entire surface of the ready-made clothes of the same shape is reproduced to reproduce the clothes that have been dropped, and finally, it is returned to the point where it was dropped, and it is photographed wearing the Magnetic Dress. It is produced in the process of
Garments falling on the streets can not read the obvious information. By losing meaning or role, it emerges to the city as a floating entity that can not belong anywhere. Such clothes are unique things in the present age where various things have been dominated by specific meanings and symbols, and because they have no meaning or role, we have various stories and landscapes. Remind of
In this exhibition, PUGMENT will be focusing on photographs taken in Ginza from photographs of fallen clothes that have been photographed continuously for five years.
Also, in conjunction with this exhibition, we will release an art book that summarizes the project "Magnetic Dress".
