Art Bra Austin is a fundraiser for Breast Cancer Resource Center of Texas. Artists and designers create/design bras for a runway show in which all the models are breast cancer patients and survivors. The bras are auctioned off to raise money for the center. Once again I collaborated with The Piazza Center to design and create this piece for one of Dr. Piazza's patients to model on the runway.

I created this with resin pieces from my resin works. I dyed and painted a corset to get the color(s) I wanted. I cut out the center panels of the corset and replaced them with vintage linen. I stitched pieces of tyvek that I altered to the cups to adhere the resin pieces to. Added a tulle skirt which I altered with a heat gun and stitched tulle flowers that I made to add interest to the skirt. The name of this piece is Great Barrier Reef.

​

Great Barrier Reef is the bra that was in the 2018 Art Bra Austin show however I made two others that coordinated with it calling them The Coral Reef Collection. Here are all three pieces that I created.
