BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Surface Textiles
A surface textiles designer specialising in screen printed and digitally printed textiles with a passion for colour. â¨â¨Interest lies in creating textiles through traditional screen printing and dyeing techniques with a modern twist using watercolours, drawings and computer aided designs. The final major project explores the balance between nature and manmade, high-end fashion and the neglect through abandoned and decaying structures. Inspired by the physical, emotional and the power balance of decay and how they âtenaciously asserting themselves despite being overlooked by the majority of passers-byâ (Landy 2003). Creating a juxtaposition, as abandoned structures are seen as derelict and ruined but contain an element of beauty and fragility. As nature has invaded over such a long period of time the decaying process has created something delicate and unique. _EDUCATION_ London College of Fashion Ba (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Surface Textiles 2010-2013 London College of Fashion Foundation Diploma in Art and Design 2009-2010 _WORK EXPERIENCE_ Freelance Print Designer_ Mirjam Roudén Design Intern April-May 2011 Giles Sample Room Intern January-May 2012 Anna Sui Pattern Making Intern July-September 2012 _AWARDS ACHIEVEMENTS_ Chelsea Flower show t-shirt competition Runner up Annual membership for The Royal Horticultural Society _SKILLS_ Adobe_ InDesign, Photoshop and Illustrator Screen printing_ discharge and devore Dyeing Digital Printing Drawings and technical drawings Pattern Cutting _CREDITS_ _FAUNA + FLORA_ Print_ Devika Rattu Dress_ Sofia Ilmonen Creative Director_ Rob Philips Photographer_ Kasia Wozniak Models_ Sophia at Select and Katharina at M+P Beauty_ Pace Chen Nails_ Lauren Michelle Pires _FLORAL DECAY_ Photographer_ GMGP Model_ Sophie at Select Beauty_ Pace Chen
