Product Description
InTents A Fair
BayouWear has documented New Orleans’ music, culture, food, flora and architecture, but until now, not the Festival itself. The ability to do so requires conscious detachment, lest the attempt to summon an encapsulating visual be waylaid by the seductive arcana of the event and the artist inhibited by the certainty that the Festival must only be experienced live.
Marta Rusin has always wanted to visit the Festival, but never made it until she made it - as a textile. It is truly an InTents A Fair; magnificent to behold; an experience in its own right. Conjured from longing, perfect in every detail. Its title recalls the Festival's origins as a Louisiana Heritage Fair. Envelop your body in this rich tapestry of love’s labor. Hand painted bas relief tented stage buttons hold the shirt closed, echoing the motif and the Festival's transfixing tents and stages.
