Abstract

In her PhD research and accompanying publication , Vivi Touloumidi investigates adornment as an active agent to address social discomfort, repression, and marginalization in the public realm. Confrontation through wearability is achieved via the gesture of decoration. Her project appropriates and subverts signs of stigmatization employed during WWII, and through in-depth research it proposes new statement pieces that speak of resilience, emancipation, and self-determination of the social body. The debate remains unsettled.
