About the Item

New, original one of a kind, shipping with 1stdibs The title is a homage to Marcel Duchamps " The Bride Stripped Bare of her Bachelors, Even" I see this work as a bride taking off her robe for the first time. Created from discarded vinyl street banners, this freeform artwork can be hung to fit the dimension of your walls. Artworks are curated from various banner sources, like the red cross, car racing, and getty banners. Each strip is hand cut and woven to create a fabric like tapestry with graceful draping when it is installed on the wall.

  • Dump Truck
    By Carly Glovinski
    Located in Denver, CO
    Rooted in observation and fueled by a curiosity about the behavior of objects and handicraft processes, Carly Glovinski makes paintings, sculpture and works on paper that often teeter between representation and abstraction.
