Through form and colour, the garments of AUT fashion designers engaged with our art collection in Toi Aotearoa, transforming the space into a catwalk on our opening day.
While photographing the event, it reminded me of something I read for my dissertation; where perhaps in the indiscernible boundary of image, body and space, those in situ of the pictures before it is a body yielding to the impulse of space; passing the image where it “… becomes a stain, it becomes a picture, it is inscribed in the picture (Lacan 97). ”
