About

This project explores the dynamic interactions of light, form, and movement through reflective surfaces and kinetic elements, investigated through photographic experimentation and digital manipulation within urban contrasts and light

interactions. Creating an immersive contrast between metallic rigidity and ethereal fluidity. 


Working with simple woven structures, I focus on unconventional materials such as, metallics, plastics, wire, chains, and reflective surfaces, creating texture and dimensionality, enhancing form and function. 


This textiles collection serves as both installation pieces and functional design elements, emphasising longevity and multi-functional adaptable designs that can evolve with their environment. Designed to transform static environments, these textiles compose dynamic visual and tactile experiences. Through form, light, shadow, and reflection, they create shifting patterns and highlights, combining art and functionality.

This project explores the interplay of light, form, and movement through reflective surfaces and kinetic elements, investigated through photography and digital manipulation within urban contrasts. Using woven structures and unconventional materials including, metallics, plastics, wire, chains, and reflective finishes, I create texture and dimensionality, enhancing both form and function. The textiles act as installations and functional elements, from wall panelling to space dividers, designed for adaptability and longevity. By transforming static environments, these works generate shifting highlights and patterns through light, shadow, and reflection, offering immersive visual and tactile experiences that merge art, design, and architectural function.
