𝐍𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝
- From the tiny world of insects to flora and fauna landscapes and geological formations. Harness the elements to create a work of wearable art that encompasses the wonders of nature.
Consumerism
- Once abandoned and discarded materials can suddenly become something with a beautiful lustre and a new life whilst bringing awareness to our modern consumerist dilemma.
Paper
- Treat paper as a material with a palpable 3D presence. You can tear, crumple, cut, add glue or wire for support to produce sculptural works that can take a variety of forms. Use newspaper, toilet paper, or recycled card....options are limitless but don’t paint it, leave it paper.
