October - December 2022
BSc Architecture, Bartlett School of Architecture
Tutors: Daniel Wilkinson & Ifigeneia Liangi
This project explores the etymological connection between weaving and narrative. work between drawing & knitting to create a 3D drawing, like lines being woven. With tactile moods, memories and materials that leave a sensory impression on the viewer. I have knitted and drawn a moment and memory that my grandmother ‘Popo’ and I shared at the fabric of the village in Hampstead, Tania’s Café. You will see designs generated through my working process from knitting, crocheting & modelling to drawing & photography.
