Here we are, first project for my degree. Where have I ended up? Studying BA(Hons) Textile Design in Falmouth, and yes I’m really happy and excited to see where the year goes.

So for the first project, only three days long, was not only to see where our skills set lie but also to meet others on various courses who all work in the building. In a group of 7 consisting of two Textile Designers, a Fashion Designer, a Sportswear Designer, two Fashion photographers and a Fashion Marketer we had to create a garment from anything free. It had to convey a message and was based around an inspirational object ours was a yellow and silver metal spirit level.

These photographs are more distorted as they have been projected onto the corner where the wall meets the ceiling. I think that these are very effective and shows the scale the designs can be blown up to. The cellular clusters are blurred which reminds me of looking into an actual microscope or an electron microscope as the image is black and white.

This zoom is as though you are looking into the microscope at these cells.

Using my laser cut designs to create shadows looking at layering, used an iphone torch for the lighting.
