About me
Textiles Design Student specialising in surface pattern design based in Bournemouth and Surrey. I am currently in my final year and in the process of creating my Final Major Project about mental health and feeling safe.
Projects
  • The Half of It
    The Half of ItI created a project based on the 2019 Netflix film The Half of It directed by Alice Wu, the film highlights themes of being brought up in a small town and dealing with the feeling of being 'different' and the conflict of leaving. I could relate to this film in many different way from the feeling of floating along to the self reflection and making a choice to move out of the comfort zone. I used processes such as silk screen printing, lino printing, foiling and digital printing onto fabric.
  • University Board for Personal Project
    University Board for Personal ProjectCloser to the hand in of projects I always love to style some of my work together to help show off the collection. These pieces include paper manipulation, screen print, hand printing techniques, weaving, CAD laser design and UV Printing onto fabric and plastic. This collection was inspired by my local town and focusing on elements people miss everyday such as windows, street work and a church pushed back on the main road.
  • Visualisation of Crane Bathroom Tiles
    Visualisation of Crane Bathroom TilesOver lockdown for a Live Brief with Daniel Heath, researching endangered animals I looked at the Grey Crowned Crane and loved the rich colours of their feathers. This is only a visualisation of what they would look like put into a real life context.
