Art to Race

Repost...Much improved photos.A real piece of History of Myself :-)..."Art to Wear" - old project from my college days... (1987)A costume painted by hand on silk,some of the racing cars were being puffed and sewed into the fabric. I was inspired by several photos of Formula 1 Racing cars,from "Auto" Magazine. This is the trousers,upper image- the behind part...bottom image -the front part.This is my second Silk handpainted work...and actually ,it was done during my college days..but it is totally self thought for ME,the Silk painting...and this all idea,of this garment....each of us as students,had the total freedom to choose media,or subject,for this "Art to Wear " project.To be continued...-the Silk Shirt for this project.It was not really meant to be a costume to wear,but more of artistic textile.Copyrights (c)Nira Dabush

Cool work Nira

I love this. Absolutely. Marlboro... my love! Just kidding, Nira. This is really a stunning work of art. And I always want to know: how many days, weeks, months... to do this??? This reminds me of my teenager time (just yesterday morning:-). I saw a movie abour racers and I was very impressed: those cars sooooo fast under a bridge...! Really dangerous; nowadays I prefer to be on the bridge :-))) Congratulations. You always amaze me, with your recent creations but with your "beginnings" too! I said once, I'm sure you have a hidden treasure, fill of incredible artwork. Please, show it to all of us. Or, at least, give me a map... :-))) Boker-tov, dear Nirush. Have a wonderful day.

Nira, so very cool, my hip and aware friend, your work always amazes me with it's complexity and it's unigue design. I love it all, Michael

Artist Reply: Thanks a lot ,Michael....And YES,you are very right about the complexity of my works...sometimes more sometimes ,less...i think it is me also from the inside...looking for complicated, complex designs...ART...Very difficult to find simple designs in my portfolio.I know that simplicity sometimes can be also GREAT...REALLY...Awesome even ,if it is done right...but somehow...its more natural for ME,to do complicated, complex,works.Thanks so very much for your comments...i'm glad you amazed by my ART...actually I even sometimes manage to amaze myself with my works...Anyway it gives me ALOT of JOY.Have a wonderful creative day...!
