Project summary:

Inspired by the work I'm doing with Melanie Bowles at the V&A (examples here: http://thepeoplesprint.blogspot.com/) and keen for a creative space beyond working for a living, I put in an application for the AA2A project at Chelsea College of Art and Design!

My AA2A working title is, broadly,  An Exploration of Historical Design References and Postmodernism through Digital Textile Imaging.
 
The project entails transforming a tiny selection of the V&A textile archive (1930s pochoir techniques to begin with) into digitally reworked grounds for contemporary silk swatchbooks that will also be developed into short digital textile animations. (These can be used for fashion films such as Eley Kishimoto's latest animation to animated 'textile' backgrounds for an array of digital media).

The work is experimental and represents a new departure in my art/design work. However, it builds upon an old love of traditional animation (I spent my student summers in film school in Prague) and a convergence of design history, textiles, plastic montage and visual story-telling.

 

More info and pics coming soon!
