Transcendence of the blues - Reinventing textile language through my memories of the Chinese indigo blue

Indigo Blue - the colour of my veins
My textiles embed my memories, my emotions and my yearning for home
The way the fabric moves in the air, reminds me of home
Mixing the Blues - interweaving cultural blue into personal blue

Master of Design

The project explores my textile voice by defining my emotional response through retrieving my memories of home. My practice aims to create my own textile language inspired by Chinese indigo cultures as a reflective approach that portrays my relationship with a place I call “home”. Through interweaving Chinese indigo textile languages into cyanotype printing, I can re-state a personal position in textile making with a contemporary approach.
