TEXTILE PROJECT

On the edge of Flora

Diving into plant histology and its organic beauty

2019•2020

​

As long as I can remember, Biology is a huge inspiration to me. During my past studies, I discovered organic worlds​ that most people aren't aware of. Plant histology is one of them. For my diploma project, I'd like to bring this amazing microscopic world into our daily life through textiles.

​

All the scientific pictures of plant histology offer stunning contrasts of bright colours. Playing with colours is one of my favorite part during the process of textile creation.

​

Tissues and cells draw specific pattern and those structures are a source of inspiration for pattern design, for screen-printing, crochet and obviously embroidery.

This textile study is also about thickness of the material, its transparency and the importance of light.
