About
Hi! I am a recent Dundee University graduate, with a 2:1 BDes Hons in Textile Design at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design. I specialise in printed textiles for fashion contexts. Typically using acid dyes on protein fibre fabrics such as silks and chiffons. A selection of my work can be viewed on my portfolio website or my Instagram.
Someone Will Remember Us
“Someone Will Remember Us” explores personal concepts of nostalgia and memory, as well as the loss that accompanies it. The inspiration for this project stems from vivid memories of my late mother. Looking at the imagery of smoke and beams of light to convey the bittersweet atmosphere of personal nostalgia and impermanence. Using the fading, billowing imagery of smoke to express my own experience with the changing nature of loss, grief, acceptance and of course nostalgia and memory. Composed of expressive mark making, using acid dye on silk.
