Zips

‘Threads of Life’ was a significant creative journey, celebrating my life and career in the manufacturing industry in Co. Donegal. The processes of stitching, developing ideas and exploring compositions also reflect my surrounding natural environment providing stimulation and creative inspiration. Materials and techniques used in the textile manufacturing industry symbolise my memories, perceptions and experiences of that time. The core of my design explores ways of creating contemporary garment sculptures, reflecting my manufacturing career and helping me to replicate elements and produce contemporary pieces of art. My collection is designed equally to be worn as it is to be displayed and this process provides the freedom to reinvent and release my creative vision
