Celestial Journey Rachel Wong Print Designer
Project Statement Celestial Journey takes you on an adventure sparked by the success of ‘Interstellar’, ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ and Valentino’s pre-fall 2015 collection. Inspired by the stars and cosmic happenings, Celestial Journey presents a collection of printed designs for interiors featuring a medley of nebulae, cosmic dust and stars. The designs in this collection are all hand painted and sponged using traditional media to create a soft, ethereal yet dusty aesthetic. Foiling was then applied to give them a slightly reflective quality. To finish, glass beads and other hand sewn embellishments were added to give dimension and twinkle when exposed to light.
