Elizabeth Delfs: The Space BetweenEmerging artist and designer Elizabeth Delfs is one of a small group of WA designers to exhibit in the invitation only L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival: The Future is Now in March 2007.
Delfs's first solo show The Space Between will be held in the internationally acclaimed and award winning brand new offices of architects HASSELL at 61Little Collins Street, Melbourne.
After being selected in 2006 as one of two WA artists to exhibit in Talente, a prestigious annual international competition recognizing exceptional emerging work in art and craft held in Munich, Delfs has since exhibited in California and Western Australia, receiving critical recognition and much interest in her hybrid practice.
Formally trained in fashion and textile design at Curtin University of Technology, Delfs's work sits at the intersection of art, garment, object and the built environment.
Her work vacillates between habitations and figurative sculpture, created through innovative applications of traditional textile processes with a palette of industrial materials such as foam and fly wire.
She works in direct relation to the body and her objects can be viewed on the body or installed in a gallery setting, and when installed create a sense of unfamiliar sensuality.
