On a great trip out with a lovely Geordie we headed to the Natural History Museum to soak up dinosaurs and a lot of nature...here are a couple of pictures from the day which actually gave me a helping hand in researching about ecology and the way we interpret nature...
I love the way this display has been curated
We need to remember that everything we do is interlinked with nature
I loved this way of displaying short films
haha what better way to put the message across??
A display rein-acting how chlorophyll cells react and change to sunlight
Currently undertaking a PhD at Manchester Metropolitan University within the MIRIAD post-graduate department, I am beginning a practice based academic journey into British wool fibres and new technologies within knitwear design.
Graduating with Distinction from a Masters in Fashion and the Environment at London College of Fashion, specialising in hand-knitting and the British Wool Industry,
I have worked on a number of knitwear collections (personal and external companies), whilst freelancing and researching for a number of exciting projects.
My work revolves around the idea of sustainable fashion from a knitted perspective and the different ways to achieve this incorporating the ideas of slow fashion into mainstream society.
I love knitting.
And wool.
And double sided sticky tape.
