Seam Stress – Alicia Barbieri

Seam Stress – Alicia Barbieri Bodies are an infinite patchwork of failures. They are self-mending systems of imperfection, causing collagen to cluster at their seams. Seam Stress explores identities as patchwork stitching together womanhood and illness/disability. The gowns in the collection combine hospital gowns and weighted blankets, questioning how weight can soothe and create pressure, […]
