Reordering The Everyday
This project delves into the visual intricacies of the supermarket experience, using primary visuals from my part time job, which encapsulates the dynamic energy of the retail environment. Drawing inspiration from the bold colours, patterns, and shapes, highlighting the aesthetic of shopping spaces. Cut and collage techniques for drawing and creating colour work, influenced by many illustrators’ paintings and textile work. Replicating the hands-on approach when printing, using stamps to create textured lines backgrounds and sublimations of artworks bonded on top. Using digital design processes to deconstruct the regimented structures of the shops into my own variations, creating mix-match compositions and scales. With a strong awareness of environmental impact, I prioritise low-waste practises by focusing on digital methods throughout my creative and development process. Creating textiles which will be brought into the home life, outcomes with interior purpose, such as tea towel, tablecloths, aprons etc. Bringing the products back to the supermarket and high street shelves to be enjoyed by the everyday shoppers

Complimentary Project
My complimentary collection steams from my joy of gift packaging, including its functionality, playful aesthetic, and sustainable approach. By using digital techniques to create paper-based outcomes, my environmental impact is minimal, while keeping creative intricacies. Drawing inspiration from everyday items found in grocery stores, focus on extracting their colours and emphasising their unique shapes to inform my design. Reorganising and arranging product placements into my own style to create conversational prints and repeat designs. Having a distinct new colour palette to contrast from my main collection but keeping imagery, shape, and pattern consistent
