About

My approach to textiles design centres around combining traditional and sustainable materials with contemporary and innovative techniques. This foundation allows for my work to be inventive and original whilst being aware of environmental concerns.

Order of the Divine was inspired by my own personal interests in various denominations of divination, including tarot, astrology and palmistry, with a focus on geometrics. For this project I have used a combination of modern techniques, including laser cutting and digital print, as well as the more traditional hand painting, alongside natural materials including cork, wood, ceramics and paper. My approach to textiles design centres around using contemporary processes, and traditional materials and methods, which comes across in this project. The colour palette was determined by my primary images and objects I collated to inform my drawings whist also being aware of current WGSN trends. Its bold use of colour, together with natural materials, gives this project an uplifting warmth with sustainability at the heart of each piece.
