ART, APPAREL & ALLEGORIES
ANGEL SAINT MARTIN
Presents ART, APPAREL & ALLEGORIES as a fusion of fiber art and fashion narratives in which garments become verse and surreal expressions of mythology, memory, and ecological awareness. Combining sewing, sculpture, surface design, and poetic storytelling, each ARTWEAR piece evokes figures and fantasy inspired by flora, fauna, and folklore. These avant-garde ensembles serve as visual allegories of the artist's biospheric values, transforming fashion into a language of sustainability, conservation, and imaginative expression through threads, symbolism, and rhyme.
ARTWEAR & POEMS
HIBISCUS CROWN CRANES DELIGHT
A garden where the colors speak,
hibiscus blooms in crowns unique.
Petals open, whispered spells,
calling joy where passion dwells.
Between the beauty and the sky,
where fleeting dreams refuse to die,
a crown of blossoms, burning bright,
redemption art for life’s delight.
Copper cranes take wing in flight,
mirrored arcs of Venus’ light.
They rise like prayers at break of
RETRO ROCKER GUITAR BLUES
A coat becomes a stage,
stitched from notes on a page.
A patchwork ballad of neon nights,
The nostalgia for retro wheels ignites
where cats strum guitars with starlit squeals,
and freedom rides on chrome-tired wheels.
Quilted fragments hum like vinyl grooves,
embroidery sparks with sequins of moves,
beads scatter like city marquees,
each surface a chorus that wants more keys
CALAVERA COCONUT CROWN
Petals erupt, hibiscus excites,
Mask of pillars, fractured sight.
Sugar skull breathes ancestral ways,
Neckerchief protects the spectral rays.
Filament core shaped, soft, electric,
Life is in bloom, coconut shell eclectic.
Calavera sugar face, bones entwine,
Fiber becomes a pulse, a sign.
Whirl of color, shadow, and sound,
Time bends where these forms are found.
A headpiece whispers, a
BLUE VINES & DAISIES DANCE
Blue vines climb where sunlight bends,
Twisting, turning, their limb extends.
Daisies nod in gentle rows,
Shifting where the skirt hem flows.
Vines and flowers wind and twirl,
A tapestry of nature’s world.
Sarape draped in woven dreams,
Strings of silver shimmer and gleam.
Skirts that swirl with every breeze,
Telling stories among the trees.
Petals dance, and colors sing,
Life unfol
BUTTERFLY GARDEN OF SPLENDOR
A crown unfolds its radiant glow,
a masquerade of change to sew.
Wire and reed give sculpted rise,
butterflies bloom in primary skies,
a headpiece lifts where the sunbeam cries.
The garment sways in breath of birth,
a feminine fusion with the earth.
A quilted wrap with swirling streams,
fabric flows through shapeshifted dreams.
Painted textures, tender and rare,
HIBISCUS CROWN & CHESHIRE CAT COAT
Before the spire in evening’s bloom,
The hibiscus weaves a velvet plume.
A violet cat, in courtly guise,
Peers forth with secrets in its eyes.
Through quilted seams, nine whispers glide,
Soft sentinels by the garden’s side;
Where blossoms bow and wild hearts stray,
Their fragrant footsteps mark the way.
O gilded age of sovereign reign,
Thy splendor sings through flo
