Elizabeth Delfs

Elizabeth Delfs' work explores the interaction between the organic and the industrial and the bodies place within the built environment. The work that she has created for Beyond Garment encapsulates the more sensual elements of her vision with ethereal fabrics that are able to vacillate between two-dimensional shapes and three dimensional sculptures. Using tulle, synthetic fabric and spray paint, her pieces fold in on themselves, becoming both hypnotic and whimsical, as well as referencing the mechanical reproductions of craft. The sculpture distorts the angles of the body and the perforations in the material collapse the boundary between interior and exterior, exploding the scope of the viewer’s perspective.
