a live creation of wearable art
Brenner is a crochet artist. For this performance, she will work on creating a long dress while wearing it in the Axle mobile artpace. With each new row of work, Brenner will lengthen the garment until the dress until she runs out of time or material.
The artist works to create awareness of the beautiful and the interesting possibilities that come with recycling materials and the ways that we all can take care of our earth, ourselves, and all the living organisms that share this planet with us. Brenner also shows us the value of engaging with the ancient creative tradition of the physical act of working with our hands to make things.
