Dress Poetics | @dresspoetics

Dress Poetics is an exhibition and publication project that explores clothing as a poetic medium, bringing together artists, writers, and performers who use garments to tell stories of memory, identity, desire, and transformation. Through textile works, sculpture, performance, and text, the project investigates how dresses and clothing can function as vessels for personal and collective narratives.
