Alicia Framis (1967)
SAFE SPACE?
2020 | ready-to-wear airbag material, pen ink, 10 ratchets, 2 boots and 2 gloves (not pictured) | 120 × 120 cm
Scribbled over with blue pens, the fabric of this work by Alicia Framis literally asks us: is this space safe?
This is a part of Framis’s LifeDress series of dresses made out of airbag fabric from cars: a high-tech material made in Japan which is highly resistant to impact and fire. Each dress is made to protect against a different form of harassment and designed to change form when intimidation occurs.
