HORMAZD G NARIELWALLA


About

My art practice looks at how Savile Row bespoke tailoring patterns of customers who are long dead can be viewed as beautiful drawings in their own right. As drawings they are abstract shapes of the human form, preceding Abstraction. Using this unique theme in my work I divorce the tailoring patterns from the garment making process to create collage artworks, graphic illustrations and precious objects.
