With a background in Printed Textiles, I have challenged the traditional methods of designing fashion accessories to create an appropriate platform to display my prints.
My process for designing a range of three dimensional pieces has become an integral part of my practice, refining the visual impact of digital and analogue collage onto luxury leather fashion accessories.
Inspired by initial documentary photography of Manchesters architecture, this collection explores texture and structure stylised into engineered print designs.
By identifying shapes and patterns from photographic elements, I have conceptualised my final collection though experimental prototyping, visualising three dimensional paper vessels in to a realised collection that showcases printed fashion accessories as structural sculpture.
