Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken – Exhibition Flythrough – FESCH.TV

FESCH.TV INFORMIERT:

Life-sized Sculptures, soundscapes, photography and over 7,000 unique pieces have been brought together for the UK Premiere of a new exhibition in Coventry – Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken.

Presented by Coventry City of Culture Trust and the Herbert Art Gallery & Museum the exhibition, Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken marks Daniel Lismore’s 20th year as a living sculpture.

Raised in Coventry, Lismore is an artist, designer, perfumer, stylist, and human rights warrior. A truly spectacular and immersive experience, this UK premiere celebrates the intersection of art, architecture, world cultures, beauty, and fashion.

Aiming to inspire visitors to be their true selves, Lismore’s life-sized figurative sculptures are crafted like tapestries and combine works of art, haute couture, and items from his personal collection of nearly 7,000 unique pieces.

Visitors can expect 50 3D sculptures modelled on the artist, each featuring a cast of his face, jewellery, vintage fabrics and found objects. Some of the sculptures on show combine precious stones and rooster feathers, others will wear embroidered tweed jackets, leg braces and hand-grenade earrings.
