Project statement (aims & outline)
- To create a body of work that is suitable for interiors.
- Use and develop embroidery techniques by experimenting with the ETHOS.
- Experiment with translating drawings and collages onto fabric by using print and stitch techniques.
- To work with fabrics suitable for interior.
- To experiment with use of motifs and colour to create different designs for different age groups.
My inspiration has come travelling around over
the summer. I took my camera and documented what I saw. I want my project to be
personal to me by including things I have seen and I aim to create a series of
motifs from the images I have taken. I will firstly experiment on paper by
drawing and painting, I then plan to take these designs onto
fabric by using a range of embroidery and print techniques.
In past projects I have tried to make my work appear fun and
playful, however sometimes the outcomes appears to be more for children than
adults. I will use this project as an opportunity to experiment with colour and
motifs, creating different combinations that will be suitable for older and
younger age groups. By harnessing my ability to create fun designs, I feel that it will benefit my practice to experiment where they will fit in the market
