Rebecca Horn makes these amazing garments that are not only beautiful to look at but ask questions and tell a story. They make me think about confinement, protection, hiding and being seen. The element of bondage in her work is sexy and alluring while also being close to a more uncomfortable theme of torture. Beautiful and dangerous, her work is massively appealing to me.
