Created alongside Twenty and Seven as a complimentary pice, White Coat Red Dress quickly became a show favorite. A piece with a lot of heart, both literally and figuratively, it's no wonder its popularity continues to soar. It's the kind of heart and soul that all relate to, but to all with a slightly different experience and story.
Inspired by a personal experience, the idea for White Coat Red Dress hit me like a sledgehammer one hot summer evening. Racing home, I couldn't wait to get back to my computer and let my heart spill over the keyboard and monitor. One night was all it took and the piece was finished - no revisions.
Well, one revision. Some days later I removed the heart. It felt too revealing, too intimate. Describing White Coat Red Dress to a friend, I later told her that the piece used to have a heart. "Put it back in, put it back in, you must put the heart back in!", she exclaimed. And she was right. The heart was essential. Without it it's just a man and a woman ambiguously connected.
Many admirers claim a James Bond feel. While the are hardly wrong, my original inspiration for the look came from the title sequences and movie posters by Saul Bass. Movies like Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo and Otto Preminger's Anatomy Of A Murder both lent their hands in the creation of White Coat Red Dress.
So who is the woman in the red dress? Maybe it's you. Buy a piece of my heart, er, I mean art and I'll tell you over a glass or two of red wine.
