  • Graduate Collection
    Graduate CollectionPrevious to creating my graduate collection, I produced a body of work as a 'minor project' which focused on all animals natural instinct to experience an altered state of conciousness through the consumption of chemical compounds found in many plants in natural environments. This research included highlighting scientific information regarding the documentation that a wide variety of species such as ants, cows, tigers and monkeys make concious efforts to seek out and digest certain plants for both medicinal and recreational purposes. This developed into the concept of illustrating natural formations using un-natural colour palettes, to reflect a common factor of concious altering substances - heightened visual senses. With a background in fashion and costume design, I translated imagery into a textured, illustrative and embellished garment, creating a piece which combines a number of textile techniques which is intended to be the start of a full summer / festival collection.
