- Summary
- Nick Cave creates multi-layered mixed-media, wearable sculptures named for the sounds made when worn. Reminiscent of African and religious ceremonial costumes as well as high fashion, they are made using scavenged ordinary materials such as fabrics, beads, buttons, sequins, old bottle caps, rusted iron sticks, twigs, leaves and hair, that Cave re-contextualizes into visionary masterpieces. He explores issues of transformation, ritual, myth and identity.
