Abstract:

The reading of costumed bodies – whether embedded within a narrative, a lineage or a coded methodology of making – was the central theme to the Critical Costume 2015 discussion. These areas were the driving forces behind many of the discussions, questions and works that were presented, whether the research was in critique of these tropes or within them. The tension between these viewpoints created new spaces of thought around the clothed body; spaces that allowed renewed and revitalized perspectives on the costumed body and scenographic space. There was an atmosphere of unity and protest, of the costume designer as the unsung hero or heroine of the scenographic space, giving storytelling and character generation an essential and important textural grounding through the body.
