This week on Art Uncovered a conversation with artist Carrie Mae Rose. I visited her at her Bushwick studio to talk about her interest in fashion, technology and the interactive wearable sculptures she makes from items confiscated at airport security. Carrie Mae has exhibited around the United States, and she is currently a Computational Fashion Fellow at Eyebeam.
