Please join Compound Yellow for a solo exhibition and fashion show by Elizabeth Burke-Dain entitled, “Matching the Drapes” on Friday, July 12 at 6pm at Compound Yellow located at 244 Lake Street in Oak Park. The fashion show will be followed by a live performance by the musical duo, Cowboy Jane. The show runs through August 17.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Inspired by the irreverent adage “does the carpet match the drapes?,” this exhibition playfully explores bespoke garments made from repurposed curtains, bed linens, and other household fabrics imbued with memories of comfort and family life.

The show at Compound Yellow, an alternative art and performance space in Oak Park, combines Burke-Dain’s new ceramic work with self-taught clothing construction. The presentation features a series of ceramic collar forms reminiscent of vintage department store displays.
