After everything that makes up this reality fades away, what will remain at the point past which nothing can exist? When I imagine pushing my subjective reality to its logical conclusion, I arrive at the singularity. As every component of reality is driven to its extreme, it deteriorates into abstract concepts beyond human comprehension. The point where information can no longer escape is the black hole; the breakdown of reality is the singularity of the psyche. This collection represents the stages and forms of said breakdown. It pushes base garments into a different point of existence – outside of “objective” reality. The pieces are created using various textile manipulation techniques, including textured nylon, hand painted leather, and thread embroidery. These techniques provide the garments with textures that portray the chaos and deconstruction I envision at the brink of sanity.
