Questioning the relationship between art and fashion, consumerism and waste, bodywrappInc. by Annette Meyer consisted of 100 archetypal business suits made from disposable plastic packaging. By displaying the hand-tailored clothing, made from brilliantly patterned packaging from three continents, in a gallery setting, Meyer sought to highlight the disconnect between the familiarity of the garments themselves and the alien nature of the chosen material.
