Behind the scenes footage of Lady Gaga wearing the slimedress by Bart Hess for the "Born This Way" album photoshoot in 2010.

"The exhibition DIVA celebrates the unprecedented power and boundless feminine creativity of iconic performers who have been challenging the status quo with their bravura and ambition. With over sixty looks and costume designs by world-famous designers – worn by people like Maria Callas, Josephine Baker, Marilyn Monroe, Tina Turner, Shirley Bassey, Cher, Elton John, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Björk, and Billie Eilish –, the exhibition shows how these divas have used their performing arts to push boundaries and make a lasting impact on society."

Check out the Slimedress and more at DIVA exposition running from October 26th 2024 to March 2nd 2025 at the Kunsthal Rotterdam in the Netherlands.

A photography series featuring costumes from the ballet “Venus”, a collaboration between Bart Hess and choreographer Sedrig Verwoert. Exploring concepts of transformation and evolution, the costumes distort and mutate with the dancers’ movements, creating a surreal, alienating image.

Digital Artefacts by Bart Hess

"project involves creating a wax mixture that hardens on the body when it is pulled underwater in a water tank where the model is dipped in creating shapes similar to an echo of the body’s’ movements. The resulting wax shapes were exhibited at the Architecture Triennale, Lisbon" - artsfoundation.co.uk

Ist es lebendig? :Tilburg (NL) bis 07.04.2024

Es vibriert, flimmert, raschelt, knistert, atmet und schaukelt hin und her in dieser Erlebnisausstellung.  Die Ausstellung im Textielmuseum Tilburg (NL) „Ist es lebendig?“ zeigt räumliche Textilinstallationen, die durch Technologie zum Leben erweckt werden. Sie entstanden aus der Faszination für natürliche Prozesse, denn wie entsteht etwas Leben? Und wann erleben wir etwas als „lebendig“? “I am a…

Gotta admit, Haim Steinbach does one thing amazingly well, like, he really nails it. And if this 35yo Bart Simpson mask were made out of a more archival material than latex, I would love to have this stunning object in my home. 45 inches tall. Imagine.

Structure on the body

Design and construct a sculptural form that can be worn on the body where the starting point is the 3d structures you made in paper and card, and your research from Broomfield.. You can use any media, RECYCLED where possible, which you should source yourself, or we also have a range available in the studio, including paper, wallpaper, fabrics etc.  

This does not have to be a fashion garment- do not be inhibited by the body- use it as a base to work on/ around.

Again, this should be abstract, and not be a covering of leaves etc.  Consider form, texture and surface, experiment with a broad variety media manipulation.  

You should generate your own ideas initially, but can work in pairs to develop an outcome together.

You should research artists and designers who make sculptural forms on the body, and you should plan your ideas carefully in your book before making.  Ensure you fully test materials, surfaces and structure before and during making the work, and record all your analysis in your journal and photographs.

Your final outcome must be photographed and filmed on a human form in the photography studio between 9.00 and 4.00, so make it to fit yourself or a specific model.  It may have a function, or can be purely a visual wonder! You should experiment with lighting, poses for photos and film..
