Artist statement
In this artwork, a large piece of white silk suspends from the top of a wooden frame taken from an artist canvas.
The minimal assembly of the two elements that conform "The Waterfall" allows the natural colour of the textile material to be affected by the airflow of the room in which the piece is presented and the viewer's position in relation to the artwork.
The artwork's title alludes to the silk's visual resemblance to the flow of a free-falling water stream, a picturesque characteristic that is also reinforced by the frame's own vertical orientation.
The piece belongs to a series of three "fashion landscapes", where a single element of fashion is used to convey the notion of a place or a scenery.
"Is a fashion painting just the act of taking fashion and appreciating it as a painting: colour, form and texture?" This was one of the answers to the question "What is a fashion painting?", the creative brief I assigned to myself for Vogue Singapore's March "Creativity" issue.
