“Press Pack” Coral…
Coral… My initial ideas for this project derived from my enjoyment and enthusiasm for felting my knits! I encountered this technique last year through a different project and it really grabbed my attention. I have combined this with another technique of Caustic Devore, another technique that particularly caught my attention. All my drawing work has been created using CAD using some starting images that I found of coral, and the work grew from there. In my work I have aimed to capture the contrasting aesthetics translated from my drawings, I enjoy working with different yarn combinations in order to produce a different sample every time. The main reason for having to use a natural Fibre and a man made Fibre together is that the Caustic Devore Paste eats away at natural Fibre and I would just be left with ruminants of my work.
