The works of artists Monika Dalkin, Sarah Dillon, Ann Maki, Maylee Noah, Elsa Perez, Natalie St. Martin, Li Turner and Cass Walker all use attire as a vehicle to carry their ideas and speak to their audience. However, each artist expresses this interest in a unique manner.

Clothing is as old as history itself. It has been used for such basic necessities as warmth and protection, as well as to define social standing and class difference. It can be used for adornment and frivolity as well as domination and control. It can convey humor, sexual energy and power.

The artists use the garment as a metaphor for their creative ideas, a means for dialogue and a challenge to accepted ideas about clothing and its function.
