In a culture preoccupied with newness and a fashion system largely predicated upon it, what is the significance of worn clothes and why do they have the power to affect us so deeply? How are relationships to clothing produced and maintained through the embodied practices of wearing, maintenance and repair? Through a focus upon a single garment, the shoe, this book calls on readers to reconsider the value of the marks of wear at a time when fast fashion reigns supreme and interest in damaged, or worn, garments quietly increases.
Originating in an experimental practice-based methodology which placed wearing at its center, this book presents the act of wearing as a tool for developing knowledge, of 'being in' or 'being with', rather than observing from the outside. Bringing together anthropological and psychoanalytic theory with practices of handmaking, wearing, and photography, this book asks what is the embodied experience of wearing and the affect of the worn?
Beautifully illustrated in full color throughout, Worn is the first book to focus exclusively on the significance of imperfect garments as important aspects of our material world and culture. 在一个充斥着新奇和时尚体系的文化中,穿过的衣服有什么意义,为什么它们能如此深刻地影响我们?如何通过穿着、保养和维修的具体实践来生产和维持与服装的关系?这本书通过对单一服装——鞋子的关注,呼吁读者重新考虑在这个快速时尚占据主导地位,人们对破损或磨损的服装感兴趣的时代,穿着标志的价值。这本书源于一种以穿着为中心的实验性实践方法论,这本书将穿着作为一种发展知识的工具,“在”或“在一起”,而不是从外部观察。这本书将人类学和精神分析理论与手工制作、佩戴和摄影等实践结合起来,提出了穿着的体验和穿着的影响是什么的问题。 基本信息 出版社 : Bloomsbury Visual Arts (2020年12月10日) 语言 : 英语 精装 : 272页 ISBN-10 : 1350087181 ISBN-13 : 978-1350087187 商品重量 : 916 g 尺寸 : 19.48 x 2.46 x 25.6 cm
