Projects 1992-1998. Lucy Orta's various projects are united by a common theme--the staging of a social bond. Her transverse approach to poetic expression forms the core of her exploration of that traumatic space between public and private, and her attention to the individual's struggle against adverse conditions. Essential to this is her training as a fashion designer, a skill which she uses to dramatize the social and psychological implications of clothing and housing.
