Fashion, Art + Window Display

This started out as an exhibition of my work in the Winter show for my first semester of Grad school. I had soo many ideas and things that I'd been working all semester. This was my semester of material exploration. I had mostly been experimenting with knitting with remnant yarn and unconventional materials, and sustainable surface surface design techniques. My initial plan for this exhibit was to have three knitted garments, but after a major setback over thanksgiving break, I realized that it wouldn't be possible. I substituted two of the garments with life size fashion illustrations (which I'd never done before). 

My work always seems to be in progress until I am 100% satisfied with the outcome. I've been interested in creating artistic retail window displays for some time. After the show, I used Photoshop to collage and enhance some photos of my display to create this idea for a window display. It was inspired by graffiti and drip painting.
