  • (dis)robe: MaternityWear -- artist Emily van Lidth de Jeude

    Maternity Wear is part of Emily van Lidth de Jeude's (dis)robe series, that explores cultural values and women's experiences through the medium of reclaimed, altered clothing. The model for this video was Jewal Maxwell, at the time separated from her child, and who sadly died in the years following this photoshoot. She wanted very much to be the face of this maternity image.

    ALT: A heap of babies crawls up the back of the enormous, heavy, reclaimed wedding gown, reaching for one of the many reclaimed pacifiers that are suspended from ribbons around the dress. From the belly, a screaming face escapes, and... for practical reasons, the gown includes a built-in baby carrier on the back!

  • (dis)robe: Gaia Gown -- wearable art by Emily van Lidth de Jeude

    A year of plants and invertebrates of the Salish Sea area, painted in graphite and acrylic onto a reclaimed and altered gown. Branches for the headdress from willow and red osier dogwood, also by the Salish Sea.

    ...
    This gown explores our human connection (and lack thereof) to the ecology of our home. How do we deify the wilderness while at the same time feeling ourselves to be above it? How are we, in fact, an integral part of it? How can we connect with the seasons as the plants, insects, and other animals do? Where do we find ourselves as humble and holy in the spectrum of our own ecologies?

  • (dis)robe: Hospital Gown performance -- artist Emily van Lidth de Jeude

    A wearable art piece by Emily van Lidth de Jeude, made with photos of over 300 people with Long Covid, and some of the 200+ symptoms we live with. The hands at the beginning of the train are drawn from my son Taliesin's hands. You also hear his hands playing piano: my comfort music. When my Long Covid was at its worst, he would gently push me from behind to help me walk. No children should grow up caring for their parents, but many do, and many now care for their parents who live with Long Covid, even when they, themselves, are living with it too. Hospital gown and blanket, wheelchair and bed sheets were donated, used.

    According to current research, over 65 million people worldwide are living with disability caused by Long Covid. Some have died including two whose photos are on this gown. While research is happening, it's slow, and many medical professionals are dismissive of patients' needs and experience. The purpose of this wearable art project is to create awareness and space for our stories to be heard.
