TILL DEATH DO US PART

Pebelle x The Jamborines - a fashion performance @Kunsthalle Wien, MQ for Early Birds

"Till Death Do Us Part" - a view on the wedding vows and what lies beneath swearing to love someone untill the bitter end. A 4min performance, underlined by the great sound of the up and coming band "The Jamborines" plays with the aesthetics of a classical marriage ceremony but at the same time shows where, according to the wedding vows the end of it all lies: Death. Love beyond death, does it exist? Or was the classic wedding vow a backdoor that the church kept, so you are free to go along once your partner died. Don't young lovers believe in a love that last for an eternity wich includes death?
In Mexican culture death is nothing to be feared, so it is also nothing that divides people. During death day all beloved that had passed away come back for one night and celebrate amongst the living.
Our wedding performance plays with all these sides - ceremonies, love, joy, death - the bride and groom with classical sugar skull make up, the priest that unites the couple but also represents death.

One review even described the performance as a furneral procession!

It was a blast, it was amazing. And it made me happy to be doing what I am doing.

I wanna thank everyone involved in this project!

The world in Black and White

For everyone that thinks tie dye is always a matter of rainbow colours, I can assure you: this point of view is wrong. Tie dye doesn't necessarily have to have this blotchy-patchy look of the 70's but can contain of fine patterns, that  enrich your fantasy.

I have recently published a sneak peak of the new series of knee high socks I did on Facebook. Soon after I was at an art event and received a lovely "review" of my work quoting that the design looks like muscles and nerves..... funny enough I often compared it with an x-ray mself, I was very touched and proud that my work triggers thoughts of interpretation.

So, as you can see tie dye and black/white are no enemies.
They can add something to one another.
Cheers, good night.

The Rainbow tree

Thanks to a close friend of mine I was introduced to a tree, that immediatly became my all time favourite tree. Why is very obvious.

The Rainbow tree is something that is totally denied to us Austrians, our clima just doesn't allow it. It's mostly planted in tropical gardens and parks, due to its show-effect. Yes, this tree is a stunner, and yes, walking in a forest of Rainbow trees is what I am going to use to circle my daydreams around while I am walking those wet, cold and grey streets of Vienna.

The axis of a rainbow along with it's colours is a neverending element of inspiration, not only for me as dyeing artist. Just take a look at what Jimmy Hendrix did with this theme.

Axis Bold as Love
....My red is so confident he flashes trophies of war
And ribbons of euphoria.
Orange is young, full of daring but very unsteady for the first go 'round.
My yellow in this case is no so mellow.
In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me.
And all of these emotions of mine keep holding me
From giving my life to a rainbow like you.
But I'm a yeah, I'm bold as love,
Yeah yeah......

Barbie Girl

There's no better way to express a bit of girlishness, that stayed within you after you already hit the 30's. So Pebelle's next project could be this skirt. Only with tie dyed hair- To show my "True Colours".  t b c
