Inspired by my most recent experiments after immigration I designed this piece. I've been indecisive about many elements that shaped my social presence. I should be true to myself was the initiative idea for designing this collection. I went through my memories from childhood up until now; As my dad was a sculptor, we used to work hours together to make abstract and volumes using materials like wood and metal. He always left the interpretation of his work to the audience; last momnt of resistance before full collision was the idea I could see behind his work.
Woven cotton was the best fabtic I could choose for this jumpsuit becuse it's naturally stiff, and could give me the colume that I needed. I wanted the piece to be raw but I didn't want it to neglect technicality, I used felted seam to have more constraint. Using fabric stiffener I kep the natural look of the edges. Inside finishings were all done using bias.

This is a discovery of myself by going through the works of all the artists who inspired me specially my dad
Inspiring Artists
The whiteface (or white clown) is the oldest of the clown archetypes. In modern times, when whitefaces perform with other clowns, they usually function as the leader of the group
This was a reference to me because it reminds me of how much I try to be super charismatic on the inside I was a clown inside my head at the time. And also I love clowns. their such strong characters

For this part i try to have an abstract notion of how i feel about the shapes and volumes.
Using digital platforms I try to use my inspirations and shape them into a visual reference of what I have in my mind

PHOTOSHOOTS
Main inspiration behind the photography was myself having multiple personalities in my head that were always fighting with each other as if they were totally different entities. As though there was always me creating them in my imagination. They never existed inside or outside of me
