“THE ANT DREAM” Uniting entomology and surrealism through a personal narrative. Analysing a recurring childhood dream about ants and transforming those ideas via collages and hand drawings into otherworldly knitwear designs for fashion knit pieces and developing samples made on Dubied and Domestic knitting machines and expanding jacquard ideas in digital Shima Seiki knitwear. Creating bug like silhouette reflecting hard carapaces with delicate under layering and grotesque and intricate macrame hand work.
