Summary/Artist Statement
Guided by different materials' history and inherent purpose, I draw inspiration for my designs. Today, I am inspired by historical legacies and contemporary innovations in aerospace textiles. By presenting the mundane in refined settings or from different perspectives, I invite viewers to forge meaningful connections. I respect the mundane.
Crafted with historic tailoring techniques, my peaked lapel grey wool Safety Suit conceals a subtle innovative intrigue: its lining, fashioned from deconstructed life vests hints at a narrative of turbulence.
