• My work explores the possibilities of three-dimensional textiles through the medium of knit. Researching various pleating techniques I have developed ways of engineering three-dimensional knitted fabrics.

  Inspired by the folding constructions of tents, I have combined these technical aspects with graphic elements to challenge the complexity of knitted structures.
