Charlotte Marie McDonald

A transient space between body and garment. My younger brother was in the military and this grounded me in many ways to understand and research into the role of masculinity today through various outlets and forms of communication. I am very susceptible to my surroundings, my experiences and those of others have definitely helped shape and influence my design process. My MA body of work is a result of codes, symbols, very much focusing on this restrictive uniform and presence of identity. Boy and Man. Single and within a group. 

It is corporeal, human. A documentation of  my personal perspicacity through curation of video, sound, garments, which cumulatively bring the hazed and complexities of life into a still precious juncture. A common thread running and racing through our bodies like a live wire, igniting with every person we meet and everything we touch.
