TEXTILE PROJECTS
Please reach out if The Book of Material Metamorphosis is of interest, I am happy to share the full document.

FINAL WORK MA TEXTILE DESIGN

​​Material Metamorphosis is a concept that promotes the up-cycling of discarded textiles and it inspires mindful and zero-waste design. By using metamorphosis it is possible to continuously transform textiles into new items. Transformations, made possible through various craft techniques, show the endless potential and versatility of the materials. I use material narratives to develop the metamorphosis concept and to forge connections between myself, my materials and the audience. Each transformable, modular garment below is made from discarded clothes and theatre costumes.
