Crafting the Paradisial Erotic
This work is intended as a gift for someone I admire. A romantic gesture envisioned as an ideal that can be given, a paradise of total consideration and control in the form of a contained room-space. A room and an atmosphere made with the intention to provide a perfection.
'Paradise is a strange land, but a familiar presence. Few have been there, but many people have an idea of what it is like. As a garden at one end of time and a city at the other, paradise is in one sense remote from worldly concerns.'
- William McClung, The Architecture of Paradise
Taking influence from highly detailed and decorative architectural structures this collection utilises intricate and repetitive techniques of construction to create a gift of labour, dedication and love. Â

Maker of intricately handcrafted knitwear. An obsessive inclination and love of repetitive detailing led me to create laborious and decorative garments, with the intention that they may be treated as a gift.
The work must show a ‘surrendering of what is to ourselves desirable’.
