The book Patterns is part of a body of work developed by conceptual artist Harriet Bart that is based on portions of garment patterns. Patterns explores the idea of garments as a point of memory, a theme that runs throughout much of Bart’s work, and draws upon the prose poem “Clothes” by C.P. Cavafy, translated by Walter Kraiser. Bart has chosen to accompany the poem with her own silhouette-like images based on Vogue and Simplicity patterns. The book is covered in black bonded leather with topstitching at the edges suggesting a primer or workbook. The text and illustrations are printed on 175gsm Rives Heavyweight pages.
