Happiness in The Mundane

My final project titled 'Happiness in The Mundane' draws inspiration from the items we carry in our bags daily. The COVID19 pandemic has caused life to feel mononotonous, however, I wanted to challenge this and show through expressive drawing and embroidery that there can be excitement in the every day - even if the only objects we carry are masks and hand sanitiser. My practice is an amalgamation of both traditional and contemporary textiles - merging customary methods like quilting with colourful digital prints to create exciting large-scale artworks that reflect my love for bold colours and shapes.
