| Description | Digitally produced collage by Maria Sikstrom, based on her research for her final major project about hoarding, influenced by the Collyer Brothers, in which Maria collected objects with no value which inspired her textile work. The images are of various objects arranged almost symetrically, with a central image of a woman wearing an outfit or shawl piece of clothing, that is the textile outcome of the objects Maria collected. On the right hand side is text about her project, and about what the most valuable learning outcome for her was: to make herself inspired, and to build stories that can inform her design practice.
[Maria Sikstrom studied for a Bachelor of Arts in Textile Design at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design.] |
