samples. adult part.


-samples experimenting with receipts to represent restriction of money and bills in an adult life. the red thread is to show the pressure to pay bills on time.

- samples to represent restriction of work in an adult life, and how for most people this is a chore, a struggle and not something they enjoy. I am using cuffs and collars of shirts as this is what most represents work to me. I machine stitched phrases such as 'i have to go to work' over and over to give a feeling of repetition, just like work.


- these samples are to link with the textile feel of a birdnest, were the idea came from, and also the idea of home, which is what a birdnest is. I used fabrics and patterns from home and parts from old curtains to give a textile feel.
