Final Major Project Collection 
WARD/9
Inspired by how the brain perceives information, I focused on the brain cyst I had as a child and the episodes of epilepsy and countless MRI scans it caused. Nothing is a clear picture until a full story is told; a blur is created; we have to look deeper in order to know the fine points. Bold sophisticated colour is utilised, inspired by EEG imagery, incorporating different levels and tones of blues and yellows parallel to a strong use of monochrome. This colour palette compliments the heavy graphic use within the collection. Prints and materials are inspired by the repetition and blur of transmitted light the brain both receives and tracks. Brain shapes and scans are the key element alongside medical text and scales for pattern. Designs are developed from hospital gown drapes and collages, creating asymmetric, unorthodox silhouettes. A synergy of my childhood experiences and contemporary design produces statement shapes with a sporty edge in sculptural spacer mesh,graphic DeVore and an MRI scanned polka dot in high resolution digital colour and shape. Sustainable design is achieved through digital pattern cutting using Clo3D and Lectra.
