Tjærandsen’s garments are most definitely performative in nature, as they can inflate and deflate (wicked cool).
What I love about his work though, is how he uses color and the transparency of the colors to add a sense of mystique to his work. I’m not sure if that is something I can feasibly execute now that I have my chosen medium, but I think that color mixing might be another interesting way of adding layers to my color choices.
