Unfortunately I lost all documentation of this piece, save what I have here. I apologize for the poor quality of the video (I would have controlled my laughter (the shaking) had I realized this would be all I had to show for it).

Anyway, hopefully the video of Målin playing in my dress gives a slightly better idea of what the piece is in its exploration of personal garments as hiding places. (My initial vision for the piece was a dress that could be worn out to the bar, with a means of warding off unwanted atention so that you might sip your drink in peace).

The piece itself was left in Sweden where I made it (scenic Öland in the background), along with the unrecoverable lost computer files.
