Oil on canvas and Art to Wear a the Museum Sursilvan, Cuort Ligia Grischa, Trun Until Oct 31st, 2007 Mascha Mioni shows her Art to Wear and matching oil paintings in the whole museum.
Mascha Mioni does not see a difference in artistic expression, whether she works on paper, creates an oil-painting on canvas, or colors silk for a dress. For decades it has been her mission to establish the creation of clothing as a form of art. By extending the process of painting on flat canvas to creating from the picture a human hull, she adds to her work a further dimension – the picture does not only become three-dimensional it is also filled with life. A painting, formed to a dress, can not only be viewed, you can enter the object of art, you can wrap yourself in it, put yourself into it.

An inspiring book and a feast for the eyes!
"The third „Art to Wear" book of the Swiss artist Mascha Mioni shows her newest creations from 2001 to 2005. Photographer Asy Asendorf has interpreted and set up her dresses in his own way. The textile creations of her „Art to Wear" are thought as autonomous objects of art that find their final destination in their physicalness, in their movement, in the individual interpretation of the art-object through the wearer. An inspiring book and a feast for the eyes!"
