We conceive of and show off our identities via our clothes, but how often do we really ponder the look, feel, size and meaning of our garments?  Julie Allen, known for her meticulous sculptures and drawings of objects important in her personal life, created this underwear from Saran Wrap and tape as one of hundreds of drawings and sculptures made to mark her recent marriage and revel in intimacies enjoyed.
