Somerset House: Fashion Revolution

Throughout this project visiting exhibitions and galleries has been crucial in creating links to my work but also helping to expand my knowledge of art today. The Fashion Revolution Exhibition was an up to date exhibition that used an array of new technologies to display art.

"In these times of instant, digitally-fuelled information, the fashion image is no longer confined to the static world of the printed photograph. Today we are confronted with a dramatic new fashion universe, where photography, film, performance, music, art and technology combine to create an infinitely richer landscape."

The exhibition ranged from videos made by high end designers such as Viktor & Rolf to phone conversations by Kate Moss. A giant Naomi Campbell greeted you as you arrived as a 20ft statue in which you could decorate via and electronic pen and pad. Overall the exhibition was one that certainly made an impression with its new age art.
