Clotheslines participated with the work Humanization in the digital collective publication Transformations: Arts and Fairy Tales. A Contemporary Anthology, curated by Eleanna Papathanassiadi, as well as in the subsequent public exhibition programme curated by miss dialectic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work draws inspiration from Greek folk tales in which garments play a central role in the narrative. In such tales, clothing is rarely described in detail; it appears instead in abstract or symbolic form, acting as a bearer of meaning, a marker of identity, and an instrument of transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By collecting and studying variations of the folktale type The Brothers Who Became Birds, Humanization explores two kinds of transformation: first, the transformation of raw, shapeless material into fabric and clothing; and second, the transformation of the one who wears it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The garment (shirt \/ dress \/ gown \/ costume \/ set of clothes) was made from 58 fabric remnants \u2014 cotton, viscose, tencel, linen, and rayon \u2014 using the patchwork technique.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
