Intuitively curated through a delicate interplay of paper folds and thread
In this series, this piece is deeply influenced by Sheila Hicks' groundbreaking work in experimental weavings and sculptural textiles. I draw inspiration from her mastery of three-dimensional forms and intricate textile creations.
In this particular textile piece, I explore various compositions through the meticulous process of 36 paper cuts, resulting in 12 distinct arrangements. Employing 100% cotton thread, I intuitively devised a repetitive sewing style that evokes the aesthetic of a corset, infusing the artwork with a sense of structure and allure.
The corset-like appearance captivated my imagination, prompting me to fully commit to the meticulously planned compositions.
