Knots
The project explores the aesthetic and functional potential of knotting applied to garment and accessories.
Â
By methodically exaggerating embroideries, stitching and knots, it aims at revealing and subverting the relationship between the knots decorative qualities and its practical nature.
Â
The scope for exploration spans between accessory, jewelry, garment, furniture and product design, and the techniques used can be declined into a multitude of purposes.
Â
The material studies looks to open a new perspective on rope (a thirty-thousand year old technology) within a contemporary aesthetic sensibility, and taps into the vast historical knowledge of the thousands of existing knots.
