Stellar

Stellar by Ignacio Torres for TheOnes2Watch
“This project began from the theory that humans are made of cosmic matter as a result of a stars death. I created imagery that showcased this cosmic birth through the use of dust and reflective confetti to create galaxies. The models organic bodily expressions as they are frozen in time between the particles suggest their celestial creation. In addition, space and time is heightened by the use of three-dimensional animated gifs. Their movement serves as a visual metaphor to the spatial link we share with stars as well as their separateness through time.” – Ignacio Torres

Fabric research posters

I wanted to create wearable research-Interaction has been a big part of this project and I wanted my primary and secondary research in a format where people would be intrigued -Tangible illustrations and references 





















Photochromic Ink

I made samples of printed photochromic fabric

Video stills




Signature



his Light suit was for another project “fashion theory”But i thought it tied in nicely with my commercial port folio course.Due to the project being based around movement and light.
The eyelets are so that the wearer can weave the EL wire rope through the suit in which ever way they want.Slow exposure on camera- movement is traced by light and movement,expression and mood is caputred.Creating a garment from light and movement

Imagine a world where our movements are traced by light

Can we prove our Individuality ?

Its time to start my development towards my next collection. After working so closely with lights,movement and expression .I wanted my commercial portfolio from last term to determine my direction for my graduate show.
I want Phycologie/the public to play a big part in my research development.Taking a group of people and studying their movements of gravatation towards certain images is something I am keen to explore.

D out of this world structures. Love the painted figures creepily haunting the dark “The “Gaping Void” collection by Erevos Aether was inspired by French poet Charles Baudelaire and his works the “Flowers of evil”.

JW Anderson




JW Anderson presented a eccentric collection for the Spring/Summer 2012 season, featuring great cutout hexagonal shirts full of color.

Marcin Podsiadło Fall/Winter 2012 collection













“The main inspiration behind the collection was symbolism of genders, depicting them by means of: square, triangle and circle, which became the straint point. While designing and then constructing garments, Marcin PodsiadÅ‚o was trying to kind of deprive the body of its shapes by giving it a new, geometric character so that the garments wouldn’t fit the body lines but rather create their own forms. Actually all of the garments in the collection were created from square, triangle and circle or the variation of these figures.
While researching, Marcin was  also fascinated with the dependance of figures, and how one can easily be transformed into another by manipulation of their sides. Natural fibres (like : cotton, wool) mixed with synthetics (like: pvc, neoprene, leather and some see-through fabrics), in black tones are dominating in the collection, and emphasize its form.”

interesting installations and creative thinking

Studio diary week 9


This week I started my popper structures.They are working well.The structures are dynamic too and work well as an accessory or a garment.The structures were laser cut an then I attached the poppers with 5-10cm apart .
My underlying structures will be more simplistic than the original lineup,due to my decision to use projections on the fabrics to create prints rather than using the method of digital printing in my previous collection
I’ve decided to take a very artistic route with my collection. creating new concepts and exploring the theme of light.
I have decided that I would like to apply for a masters In social design so I will be pushing the boundaries within my brief and collating science with art.

Dream the world awake

Nick night , Walter van Beirendonck and Simon foxton collaborate to make a fashion film celebrating walter life and career   (.. Love this..)
