I am
currently studying BA (Hons) Textiles and surface design and I am due to
graduate in June 2013. The area in which I specialise is fashion. My main
inspirations come from botanicals, floral, foliage and all of the natural
surroundings. I enjoy using a diverse but muted colour pallet combined with
dark and rich tones which complement each other. My final outcomes are usually
digitally printed onto fabric and worked into with a number of various
techniques including embroidery. I love to style my work through the use of
photography I often arrange objects in an imaginative way and photograph them;
I use the photos within the drawing process or for my mood boards. I have
exhibited my work at Indigo trade show in Paris and also Printsource in New
York. I am a hardworking, committed, self-motivated and organised individual
with the ability to work independently and confidently.
· What is the world we live in? I am always asking myself
questions about life, how did we get here? Is there such a thing as god? What
happens to us after we have lived? Do we shine bright amongst the other stars
in the galaxy? What are stars? Wishes, dreams, particles, dust or even new
life? Does a star fall from the sky and plant a seed which grows into a
gorgeous crystal? Why do nearly all of us think about money, diamonds, crystals
and treasures when the thing that is the most precious to all of us is growth
and life itself?
· My project will focus on the contrast between what we
believe to be precious and what is precious, growth and greed. It will focus on
the forgotten sentiment of life being overrun by materialistic possession. I
aim to combine two themes together for this project one is based on jewels and
crystals the other is based on space and botanic.
· The colour pallet is fairly diverse and includes colours
such as sienna, terracotta, purple, blue, pink, yellow, grey, green and soft
metallic.
