Marty's Closet
Marty's Closet

2004

I created a wardrobe for Marty. There was a bubblewrap coat, with gloves and shoes. I knit armor for him, a dress shirt. To show the extent of his surgeries, I took clothing from his wardrobe, cutting and stitching the appropriate places. The day before this was first exhibited, I realized, when Marty was getting dressed, that I had forgotten one and had to make an additional incision.
