Artist statement<br />
Presented as a vintage knitwear<br />
catalogue, Maille Order combines our<br />
current need for personal protection and<br />
how we might consider what we wear as<br />
armour, with kitsch styling. The ‘knitting’<br />
of armoured face masks, an apron and<br />
jumper, conflates women’s work and the<br />
masculine associations of chain maille.<br />
Asking questions about how function and<br />
value can be subverted through material<br />
associations and tongue-in-cheek tropes.<br />
The viewer is invited to leaf through this<br />
fashion pamphlet and to indulge in the<br />
product’s absurd futility.<br />
Biography<br />
Annalise Fredericks is a multimedia visual<br />
artist and aspiring costume and concept<br />
designer.<br />
Having graduated from the ANU School of<br />
Art and Design with a Bachelor of Visual<br />
Arts, Annalise works across a variety of<br />
different mediums, ranging from painting<br />
and printmaking, to sculpture and textile<br />
work. Her work tends towards exploring<br />
and experimenting with materiality<br />
and texture, often leaning towards<br />
themes of fantasy, stories, history, and<br />
the surreal. A key aim with her work is<br />
pushing the limitations of and subverting<br />
the expectations of the viewer through<br />
materials.<br />
