Dresscode is a community based art project that deals with the questions of style and taste as an indicator of social class. It raises the questions how we choose our clothes, what kind of an image we want to build of ourselves and how does these intentions correlate with our socio economical status.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to be part of a certain community or different communities and indicate our \u201cmembership\u201d by our clothing without loosing our personality and individuality. Dresscode reveals that judgments of taste are related to social position.\u201d says artist Katriina Haikala, Nutty Tarts.<\/p>\n

Dresscode-project has been executed once before in Helsinki, Finland in year 2012, and it was exhibited in Amos Anderson art museum. The NYC -edition of the project was photographed in three different locations in New York City: 1. Madison avenue, Manhattan, 2. 161th street, Bronx and 3. Greenpoint, Brooklyn, artists T\u00e4r\u00e4ht\u00e4neet \u00e4mm\u00e4t \/ Nutty Tarts and Heidi Lunabba interviewed and photographed almost 200 new yorkers. Three models were asked to model for the photographs that are now exhibited in the gallery of Parsons The New School.<\/p>\n

\u201cUsually we don\u2019t like to talk about social classes though we have a good eye on knowing the differences between the styles of different social classes. We categorize people unconsciously really quickly by the way people are dressed, and that\u2019s why taste as an indicator of social class is such an interesting topic for an art project!\u201d says artist Heidi Lunabba.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
