Concrete Jungle

  • Lorna Phipps

‘Concrete Jungle’ explores animal’s adaptations to urban life as deforestation becomes an increasing problem to animals and their habitats. These patterns designed combine urban buildings with fragmenting animals to stimulate camouflage. The heavy weight patterned fabric with hand painted motifs emulates the urban and animal cross over. With combinations of thick and thin yarns embroidered into the painted motifs, it creates texture for the animal’s fur.
