Snake Skeleton
This is an image I took of a snake skeleton. I wanted to look at the delicacy of the snake and explore ideas of beauty in decay.
Lino Print
This is a print sample I produced. I came up with the design looking at the snake image and tied ideas of traditional femininity in by including flowers, pearls and ribbon into the design. I printed my design onto an image I took of a knit sample I produced made out of latex.
Experimenting with Knitting
This is a close up of a small knit I did as I was experimenting with knitting with latex. Using photoshop, I edited the pictures to a vibrant pink to tie into some research I had done on 90s femininity.
Modern Femininity
This is a photograph I took inspired by the research I did into modern femininity, particularly focusing on the 90s.
Skeleton Close Up
Experimenting with Weaving
This is a close up of a weave sample I produced where I explored weaving with latex. I then edited the image to tie in my research onto 90s femininity.
