Identifier:FA.B69.2106

Creation dates:2018

Subjects: artists' books, perfect bindings

Description:Artists' book with perfect binding, a paperback cover, and printed in color. "Project Z is an artists' book that approaches the practice of garment-making as an intimate social platform. By elevating the dialogue in the creation of one-of-a-kind pieces, the project explores the semiotics of dress in relation to community-building. "In producing this publication, Khalifeh conducted a series of in-depth interviews with nine participants with the goal of creating an article of clothing in dialogue with each subject. Upon completion, the participants were given their respective garments to keep and wear. The resulting conversations, design research, construction process, and fittings have been compiled into this book created in collaboration with Open Projects Press." -- http://www.openprojects.info/index.php/press/project-z/
