“L’Embellisseur de trous”

Joanne Grimonprez

We wear clothes.
Moreover, we love them. Sometimes, they make us say “How beautiful you are today”!
A beautiful piece of clothing suits well, it fits like a glove.
It’s a little part of the other person that we love.
My John is called Mat.
I think that he sometimes deliberately makes holes in his clothes.
Anyway, I sometimes whisper (I don’t shout) “Oh no, Mat...”
Instead abiding by the century old feminin tradition of sewing, I decided to accept and love these holes. To give them a value.
We must see them at the first glance, like something very obvious, to accept them.
So we must adorn them.
The idea, would be to have a lot of “how to make your clothes-holes beautifull” pieces.
Jewellery for holes.
