Soundsuit

“The suits can be elegant, goofy, sexy, funny, lovely, scary, weird, and creepy, but they are generally crowd-pleasing, and this, over decades of continuous production, has earned them disapproval from some corners of the art world. Sometimes they look like ceremonial tribal attire, sometimes like haute couture, sometimes like modernist abstractions sprung to life, sometimes like creatures from the minds of Jim Henson, Dr. Seuss, and Maurice Sendak, mid-rumpus. They have been featured in a Vogue September Issue photo spread.” (E. Allen, “Wild Horses in Grand Central,” The New Yorker, 1 April 2013)
