Projects
- EARTHEDEarthed is a collection of work that considers the natural design of rock formation, working with colour and highly textured yarns and techniques to reflect her photography. She inserts detailed knit designs into plain fabrics to push the boundaries of patchwork and how these can be incorporated into fashion. She uses personal locations to fuel the aesthetics behind her work, taking the pattern variation of cliff faces and natural shapes of rock, to enhance texture and the building of three dimensional structures amongst her intricate knit designs.
