Nostalgia: The connection and remembrance of what has gone before

This collection is inspired by my personal aspiration to turn the ‘discarded’, into a vehicle of unspoken story-telling. This romantic view of the past has been ingrained in me, as a child being in awe of materials which serve as a placeholder to a pocket of time, the subtle remainder of lost generations is for me, a form of decoration that often undermines the cracks and decay of reality. My process develops through mixed collage methods using a variety of techniques combining digital techniques, contrasting traditional methods of stitched embroidery. This collection is intended to be worn, offering a new life to pre-existing materials and giving a sense of value to something that was one considered waste. It is love letter to the future, that will forever go unsigned.

Complementary Project

For my complementary project I have created a series of compositional embroidery pieces that convey stories of the past and draw inspiration from millenarian medals, embroideries and flags. Additionally, I have explored, the conveyed status employed by them as indicators of achievement and how they can be re-imagined today as celebrations of aesthetic and beauty, without all the meritocracies.
They are intended to be enjoyed on the walls of interiors as a modern take on tapestries.
