ROLE

Designer and fabricator

COLLABORATORS

Bess Paupek, Excavate

MATERIALS + METHODS

3D printing, sewing, waterjet, Spandex, aluminum, silicone, resin

PERFORMANCES

deCordova Sculpture Park

This project was designed and fabricated for Bess Paupek of the dance and performance group, Excavate. I was inspired by conversations I had with Bess about the concepts behind their performance; Lizzie deCordova, one half of the deCordova’s, founders of the deCordova Museum in Concord, is a forgotten part of the Museum’s history. Her letters remain unscanned and little is known about her. Excavate was interested in bringing her back to life through Bess’s performance. Lizzie’s emergence from the earth was a key part of the performance, and so at Bess’s request, I created deep pockets in the dress to store dirt, and arm sculptures that held dirt. The arm sculptures are fabricated from laser cut acrylic with silver spray painted 3D printed connectors. The form of the dress came from of photo of Lizzie deCordova’s wedding dress, one of the few photographs of Lizzie available to the public.
