Market Arts April Nashville Trip
Bra shopping in the big city! The left image is actually dress made of pink crayons. Cool, huh?
Our April trip to the Nashville PRSA Awards show was, what, all work and no play? I don’t think so. Inspiration comes in surprising places. We were intrigued by the lobby art at our decidedly quirky hotel and that got us thinking (yeah, we do that sometimes) about the power of everyday stuff when it’s used in unexpected ways.
Who else is thinking “70’s porno flick”? Why yes, that is red faux pony skin that adorned the walls of our hotel’s elevator. Getting up to our floor was a memorable experience. We weren’t quite sure if it was smarmy (okay, it was really smarmy) but it was completely true to itself. Honest smarmy, you know?
And crayons. Every kid has crayons. But hardly anybody makes a pink crayon dress. It stands out and sticks in your mind precisely because it is unexpected. Kind of like the punch line to a joke. Your mind is going along a certain path and then, bam, you end up someplace you didn’t plan to be.
Madonna has already done underwear as outer wear but it’s not everyday you see a bra as a light fixture. Illuminating - in every way.
Our trip to the big city reminded us that the potential for creativity is all around us. It’s in the stuff of every day. Maybe faux red pony fur is just what you need to stand out. We’re sticking with crayons because underwear belongs in a drawer when it’s not on the job.
