folding and cutting

you know when you fold a piece of paper and then cut out the shape... maybe the shape of a person and then it turns out to be a bunch of people holding hands....



I used the shape of a dress... (strapless)

and when i unfolded it created this nice barrier that curved into itself creating a small space...

Im interested in how i could materialize this ... i like this space and would like to project onto it and the individual dresses and then the dresses collectively... or perhaps ... what if the negative space created the outline of a dresss... or continuously grew
