Virtuality conceptualized when I set eyes on a Facebook
post by Fashion World, the image appeared real – a live
model, physical garments and makeup – yet at the same
time alluded to being hand drawn.
I was creatively and mentally stimulated. This image
enabled the viewer to decide on its context, its reality. I
knew from this point I wanted to offer a similar
experience with this new creative collection
Still fixated on this particular image, I began to evaluate
the hair, drawn to its transparency. From here my
thought process moved to fabrics, textures and the
possibility of manipulating hair to appear textile.
Textiles – the canvas for so many shapes, silhouettes
and styles – weaving, puckering, lace and crochet, the
options are endless.
