Confidence and Power
Developing an Art and Design practice is what helps to define the artist and designer. In the art world and the creative industries, artists and designers will often pursue individual concepts and themes, which come about through a series of proposals to organisations and pitches to clients. Sometimes this will be for a one-off project (together with its own restrictions - such as time, materials etc.) whilst for others their projects could last up to decades, in a state of continuous development and flux...
For this project I wanted to celebrate women and inspire them to be powerful and confident. I took inspiration from the designer Alexander McQueen, who focuses on exquisite tailoring, exploring masculine and feminine silhouettes and materials. My aim was to show women as the strong, independent, bad asses that they are.
