From the History of Clothing: Crinolines
"In an old magazine, I saw a caricature of the fashion of the time of Napoleon III: several people were located in a very wide women's crinoline, like in a tent. They live there, as in a house, hiding from the whole world. We can continue the associations; a person has many "screens" with which he separates himself from reality, creating boundaries that do not let into his soul. Crinolines are very bulky and voluminous, reminiscent of architectural forms. Or cages, into which what once protected and guarded their owner has turned".
Leonid Shereshevsky (1948−2023) is a ceramist, graphic artist and sculptor whose persistent motif is the image of the body as a home, and his favorite subject is the city landscape and a person in a crowd. His characters (even sculptures) strive for flight, but are suppressed by the historical atmosphere.
