This collection is inspired by my personal aspiration to turn the ‘discarded’, into a vehicle of unspoken story-telling. This romantic view of the past has been ingrained in me, as a child being in awe of materials which serve as a placeholder to a pocket of time, the subtle remainder of lost generations is for me, a form of decoration that often undermines the cracks and decay of reality. My process develops through mixed collage methods using a variety of techniques combining digital techniques, contrasting traditional methods of stitched embroidery. This collection is intended to be worn, offering a new life to pre-existing materials and giving a sense of value to something that was one considered waste. It is love letter to the future, that will forever go unsigned.
