The gallery of Mieke van Schaijk hangs as a bespoke dress in the small yet sturdy Dutch wardrobe in the city of ‘s-Hertogenbosch. Completely unique, and delicate in detail, it is a piece that follows no generic pattern in favor of the risk to be something other. Not simple/easy to hold, (and why should it?) the fabric is woven with an idiosyncratic thread, with an imaginative approach. Appliquéing artistic visions since 2012 and hemmed by the stitch of contemporary, the program cuts a shape proportioned meticulously through the ‘savoir-faire’ of balancing asymmetric creative practices, unafraid to be bejeweled, sheer, or figure-hugging. *by Fiona Mackay
