FIBRE REACTIVE (2004) by Donna Franklin.
HINT: Living garment.
"Fibre Reactive is a unique living garment that attempts to raise debate on the controversial manipulation of living entities into commodities and the use of microbiology as an artistic tool. The Pycnoporus coccineus fungus is cultivated and produces a living colored surface. It is the intentios of the work to challenge the role of garments in commodity culture and to aslo draw attention to our own morality."*
