BETWEEN US: A FABRICATED CLOAK: GARMENTS FOR PARTNERS + PARTNERSHIPS

ABSTRACT /

JANE LAWRENCE AND RACHEL HURST
ART, ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA

Partners in architecture and design are often clothed in orthodox professional guise, as impartial and equal marriages. However when these partnerships extend beyond the purely professional and into sexual relationships and familial bonds, what can be made of the associations between private lives that cannot be seen and practice that is visibly built? This exhibition responds to the work of three distinguished contemporary Australian design partnerships, each selected as a pertinent study for the ties that bind professional and private lives. The collection will consist of abstract t-shirts derived from spatial and structural analyses of works from each couple's practice, and imbued with perceived qualities of tensions and tolerances within their pairing.

Constructed from the conventional materials and techniques of architectural representation, these lightweight fabrications are crafted from detail and tracing paper. They are inscribed with dimensions, diagrams and text relating to the built work and union. Traditional dressmaking craft is employed in allusion to the everyday, which underwrites the constancy of long-standing partnerships. Deliberate asymmetry in the pieces implies that partnerships are not always equal; their varying degrees of translucency and opacity suggest that for every coupling there are degrees of difference and alignment. Designed as works to be viewed in the round, the apparel is to be hung or suspended within a slipstream of air either natural or artificially induced. The fluttering and whirling movement of the intentionally fragile garments is a metaphor for the often tenuous and turbulent nature of close associations.

Biography: Rachel Hurst and Jane Lawrence are Senior Lecturers in architecture and interior architecture respectively. Their collaborative research from a professional partnership and friendship of over 30 years focuses on domesticity and the everyday, and alliances between food and architecture. Their research alliance is manifested in exhibited works, publications and an awarded teaching practice.
