Andrea Zittel

Because I live in a mobile home (a BIG one, permanent so no trips away) and because I have stripped it back to the shell and am rebuilding it (myself) I have a keen interest in contemporary mobile structures and ecologically sound building practices. So someone directed me to the Zittel website which had a really wide variety of interesting units, furniture etc but best of all gorgeous felt dresses (called a-z fibre form uniforms). The photo's on the site were quite small but I found the bigger one below here with an article about a Tokyo exhibition of her work.

    Those dresses are beautiful.

    Zittel was featured in the first season of PBS's Art:21- which you can rent from netflix.

    here's a link to her bit on the pbs site http://www.pbs.org/art21/artists/zittel/index.html

    I loved her crocheted dresses too.
