TENAT
DI ELLIS
Ellis’s current practice explores the theme of personal fortification in contemporary
society. Through protective or restrictive garments and currently icons and amulets she
examines patriarchal order as imposed on women. Tenet is a range of hand quilted
protective undergarments further fortified with icons to protect the wearer from the rigours
of the post 9/11 world.
