Being on Paros makes blogging more difficult for me so I make use of Facebook, volendo non volendo, while here.

However, Brod has inspired me to make an extra effort. What intrigues me is the use of one dress pattern and, via choice of fabric, create an infinite variation of styles.

Gouache & ink on Japanese paper, by Anna Kunz

The work of Brooklyn/Chicago-based artist, Anna Kunz, who has selected 30 of her rarely exhibited paintings on paper for our premiere launch of Uusi Studio. These paintings on Japanese paper are initially used by the artist to to generate a complex, interwoven vocabulary of light, color and form that later become part of her well known, larger scale work and installations.

There are many other dresses done using this same concept.  I haven’t found any description regarding the process but would assume that these dresses are made using Photoshop.
