Projects
- Major Project- 'Outdoor Adventure'‘Outdoor Adventure’ is inspired by my first-hand experience within Scouting and Guiding from being involved as a child to becoming an adult volunteer. The sustainable collection of tactile knit and woven techniques sits alongside digital printed fabrics and incorporates recycled reflective material from deadstock workwear. The collection is for a menswear context and connotes the importance the outdoors has on mental and physical wellbeing.
- Welsh Heritage ProjectLove the photographs of my previous project looking at Welsh Heritage. I enjoyed collaborating with students from the Commercial Photography course at AUB. The collection is for a menswear context and showcases some of my technical skills in Digital Print, CAD Embriodery, Digital Weave and Machine Knit.
