Confessions and the Sense of Self: Works by Noel Palomo-Lovinski 2003-09
The exhibition Confessions and the Sense of Self: Works by Noël Palomo-Lovinski 2003-2009 highlights the connections of popular culture, image, fashion and art by examining the act of confessing in a contemporary context. The twelve garments included in the exhibition are inspired by the increasingly popular impulse in our society for individuals to publicly confess private thoughts or actions as a way to expunge guilt, share personal tragedy, or express their secret desires. Confessional outlets range in public display from nationally televised talk shows and confessional websites to personal communications and intimate journal writing. Quotes were taken from a variety of these sources, translated into textural and graphic prints and used to create a collection of dresses. The garments reflect the abstract interpretations of the confessor's feelings or emotions.
Noël Palomo-Lovinski will conduct a tour of the exhibition on Thursday January 29, 2009, from 3 to 5 p.m. The event is free with Museum admission.
