BA (Hons) Fashion Design Technology: Surface Textiles
Within this project i looked through the past to uncover the brutal history of the slave trade and how specifically the female slaves were treated, the lives they lead and the task they had to deal with on a daily basis. Raising consciousness throughout a material culture on the physical and mental state that female slaves were left in is the overall perspective for the theme. Using natural yarns Hemp, Cotton, Wool and linen also neutral colours to go with the palette of the research. I am a strong minded character who likes to use an assortment of colours and shapes when creating knit.
