DESIGN FOR TEXTILES

Growth and Decay: Finding beauty and inspiration from mold/waste.

My aim with my project was to celebrate the use of waste materials in the visual development of a physical and virtual design collection. I wanted to create a range of knitted pieces for the body inspired by growth and decay, that explore the sculptural and textural qualities found in my study of waste and mold.
