| ReAction is Direction.
The movement that creates the transference of shape is born
between what we give form to with our minds, and that which
we fashion with our hands. A heightened sense of being reveals
the body re-discovering its own line.
Fabrics: Pure wools, silks, stretch blends, starched fabrics
and latex.
Techniques: machine sewing, and collages of fabrics and latex
to distort bulks.
Colours: Beige, ivory and black.
In hair, detail is all. Volume and texture are enhanced,
and imaginatively worked on.
Nude flesh tones characterise the make-up.
The shoes follow the same stylistic lines as the hair.
