Rhizome [commissioned artist](http://rhizome.org/commissions/proposal/2721/?ref=protein.xyz) [Adam Harvey](http://ahprojects.com/?ref=protein.xyz) hosts an exhibition of 'anti surveillance' fashion in collaboration with NYC fashion designer [Johanna Bloomfield](http://www.johannesfaktotum.com/?ref=protein.xyz) and [Primitive London](http://www.primitivelondon.co.uk/?ref=protein.xyz) from Jan 18th - 31st. The three pieces on show tackle the aesthetics of privacy and the potential for fashion to subvert surveillance.

Each piece is accompanied by video documentation uncovering the counter-technology which underpins each item of clothing. The Anti-Drone hoody and scarf are [stealth wear](http://ahprojects.com/projects/stealth-wear?ref=protein.xyz) intended to thwart thermal imaging, a technology employed by UAVs (aka [Drones](http://prote.in/feed/2012/11/dronestagram?ref=protein.xyz)). The [Off Pocket](http://offpocket.com/?ref=protein.xyz) is an accessory that instantly blacks out your phone's signal. And the XX Shirt is a digital print which shields your heart from X-Ray radiation.
