Corset revisisted


I made this corset Easter of 2007 at a TAFTA workshop in Horsham, Victoria. The workshop was led by Kirry Toose, a fantastic textiles artist. I made the corset below during the week at the workshop. The corset is inspired by the bark of different trees. Close-up photos show how the panels represent various types of bark. I've decided since the workshop that i don't like the plain panels in the corset. I've started unpicking all the panels and plan to replace the blank ones. Going to a be a very long process.
