SURVEILLANCE SURREALISTE EXPLORES VISIBILITY, PROTECTION, AND THE EXPERIENCE OF BEING WATCHED.

DRAWING FROM BLACK COWBOY HISTORY, 1920s ZOOT SUITS, AND THE SYMBOLISM OF THE EVIL EYE, THE LOOK COMBINES EXAGGERATED DENIM SILHOUETTES WITH AN ALL-SEEING GAZE. THE WORK TRANSFORMS SURVEILLANCE INTO RESISTANCE:

INSTEAD OF SIMPLY BEING OBSERVED, THE WEARER TURNS THE GAZE BACK ONTO THE VIEWER.
