Troppo Scarf

100% Silk Crepe de Chine Scarf designed and made in Australia. The original artwork, measuring 110 x 110cm square was a paper cut of tropical fruit, large fronds, bare feet and sunburnt breasts. Each element was hand cut from the paint swatch samples commonly found in hardware stores. Some of the paper cuts were then hand painted to add detail, the entire process taking over 16 hours. The final piece was photographed at high resolution by a fine art reproduction company based in Fremantle and the digital version printed, as a limited run of 50, onto 100% silk crepe de chine. The silk square can be worn or hung as an artwork.
