RHYS BARTHOLOMEW
My name is Rhys Bartholomew and I chose Graphic Design by
accident in 2015 and haven’t stopped loving it since. I’d
also never been interested in University until I got into
Footwear Design.
I’m now 22 years old, about to go into my final year of
university and I’m still heavily inspired to learn by the
ever-growing industry of both Graphic & Sneaker Design.
I’m known mostly for my intense passion for Sneakers and
Sneaker design itself, however some of my favourite pieces
of work have been through magazine design, film posters &
Social Media campaigns. That being said, the majority of
my work includes Sneakers in some way or another, usually
heavily focussed on Adidas due to my long standing passion
for the German brand.
In 2017, I started Vooruitgang, a clothing brand standing
for positivity, forward drive and motivated young persons.
We are able to boast the pre-release sell out of both of our
first two releases, allowing for a fast paced introduction
into my clothing design ventures.
With aspirations to work with the likes of Adidas, Carhartt
& The North Face, plus my own business/design ventures, I
hope to contribute towards the future designs and concepts
of Sneakers, Clothing & more through my intuitive everexpanding
interest in multiple forms of design.

ANNIE MARR
My name is Annie, I’m also known as BB Designs. I studied
Graphic Designs at Level 3 at Bournemouth and Poole College,
where I then have gone on to do the HND Graphic Design
pathway that the college offered.
In my spare time, I love to sew and embroider, creating
patterns from my Photoshop skills. I am a keen Illustrator
and love to create surface designs, which I would say is a
deep passion of mine. In addition, I am a keen drawer and
crafter, often making homemade greeting cards for family
and friends.
I have a deep understanding of the Adobe software Photoshop,
Illustrator, and InDesign, with Illustrator being my favourite
and thus where my talent lies. I have been uploading work
regularly to the website Redbubble, that allows me to sell
work all over the world from France to America, Netherlands
and Australia. I also have an Instagram account, where I
upload and showcase my work, under the name annie.marr198.
My future plans are to go freelance and to perhaps do an
online top-up year in BA (Hons) Graphic Design.

Breaking Down
In this project I chose to explore the concept of evolution
and how we impact the world around us, as well as its other
inhabitants. To represent this, I have developed a series
of screen prints in order to delve into the connections
we have with nature, and how short lived they may be if we
continue to consume the way we do.
Research has played an important role in my project. It led
me to create a survey to investigate what others believe
about Evolution and what their predictions for the future
might be. These responses have a direct link to my final
series which draw on ideas of extinction and destruction.
I’ve really enjoyed experimenting with different processes,
such as cyanotype, which I’ve found to be a useful tool
to express my ideas. I aim to present the importance of
conservation in a subtle yet engaging way in my final prints.
We are all linked in some way through evolution, so who are
we to change this?

INDIA BEAUDRO
Who am I?
Who am I? We often ask ourselves this, but do we ever really
figure it out?
For my project I looked at identity, considering everything
about everyone.
Gradually I narrowed down my ideas through artist research
such as; The Guerrilla Girls, Ellen Gallagher and Dominic
Beyeler. Their boldness within their fields have really
inspired me, for example, speaking out about racism and
gender equality. The styles they use have given me a vast
range of ideas for this project, and I have experimented
with a range of styles and techniques, to communicate my
own individual twist.
As I came into my final piece development, I decided to focus
on my identity. I have created a large-scale piece, in a
collage layout, including a range of canvases, experiments
I have completed throughout the project (such as screen
prints, photo-layering, mark-making and spray painting)
and projections. These projections will be continuously
changing after a certain amount of time, just like we do.
In this outcome I have linked material, time, message and
colour to me and my identity.
Now think about it, who are you? What would your identity
look like hung up on a wall for everyone to see?

The Unknown
If you like horror then you’ll surely like my horror clip,
this little charming film contains long and eerie shots
of the forest, whilst there is chilling audio within the
background.
Watch as a young girl and older man have one of the worst
times ever. This film is very suggestive as to what is
really happening, but (spoiler alert) is pretty gruesome.
This heart pumping, bone chilling, knee quaking nail-biting
horror will surely knock your socks off.
Created within the depths of a 3 bedroomed house and the
expensive Moores valley, enjoy the scenery whilst you can...
Because it’s like 4 minutes long
It is recommended that children under 7 years old do not
watch this however, I’m not one to withhold experiences
from others...

Home
What does home mean to you?
‘Home’ is a short film documenting the meaning of home
from different perspectives, along with my own personal
experiences and feelings towards the topic. My aim is to
provide some sense of comfort amongst students like me
living independently for the first time. Trying to capture
nostalgia and fondness towards the past (whilst still
bearing eagerness for the years to come) was important to
me in this project. I used different editing techniques;
creating a vintage style colour palette and jerky sequences
often found on old pieces of cine film. Reflecting on the past
is a very personal thing, and I wanted to show my reflection
in a positive light as I look excitedly to the future.
My traditional cyanotype is a nod to all things old fashioned,
connecting my childhood home as something that can be laid
to rest as still part of me, but allowing me to move on to
new things. Visitors are welcomed to write anything onto
the cyanotype.

Horror in Milton
My horror scene in Milton is a fantasy horror of my life
with my boyfriend in our haunted mansion.
The movie Coraline and Tim Burton inspired me to create
the horror theme and to make it spooky. I also researched
Disney to inspire the childlike imagery and wanted to add a
horror theme, as I wanted my work to be unique.
I chose to make a 2D animation and add sound effects and
special effects. I have added in subtitles so my viewers
can understand what we are saying so this tells my audience
more about the story I’m trying to convey.

Link
In this project I wanted to look into people; this includes
the relationship between people and environment and the
relationship between people and people. I’ve always been
interested in the bonds people share and I feel there
is something organic in photos where people are captured
accidentally. This is why I used images from my family photo
albums. I was inspired by the otherworldly photographic
work of Charlotte Rutherford and the collaged portraits of
John Stezaker. This inspiration and further research led
me to change the landscape of the holiday pictures and then
remove the people in them to make them more important. I
altered these images in Photoshop and then printed them out
onto acetate and to make them into a diorama.

SHANNON EVANS
Sense of Self
Throughout this project I decided to develop my own
understanding of how people think individually yet
instinctively, and our responses to various life experiences.
I have always been curious about the reasoning behind our
way of thinking and how we choose to communicate our inner
thoughts, emotions and intentions. I like to say I am
inspired by the structure of us.
I question frequently, who am I as a person? What defines
us? How are we programmed and shaped by the world? What is
our purpose? The meaning of life is undoubtedly discussed
by everyone. As an art student, I have noticed how this is
portrayed through my sketches, photos and books of creative
writing.
Artists, photographers, writers and other creative
individuals tend to express their individuality, many who
attempt to translate the unexplainable creatively through
their work. For example, a colour can define an emotion, and
a line may represent a thought.
I feel this project outcome represents the human awareness
of one’s self and the sense of insecurity of the unknown.
One of the biggest mysteries out there, is us.

CHEN HAO (HOW)
Hot Air Balloon Pack
I would like to show the structure of a hot air balloon, I
made many hot air balloon models so as to study the shape of
hot air and summarise the methods to improve the production
during the making process.
I was inspired by the metal mesh artworks I saw in the
museum, and I also found many pictures of metal mesh artworks
online.
After looking up the history of hot air balloons and the
video model making on the Internet, I decided to make a hot
air balloon model with metal mesh and various materials.
However, I encountered many difficulties. Because the
ordinary metal mesh is very hard and cannot easily change
the current situation.
In these models, I used plastic, paper, cloth, metal mesh,
different colours of wire. Each balloon model used different
methods and techniques, such as paper stitching, metal
netting, white glue and thread.
When I made a foldable model, I was inspired and interested
in its unique structure. Combined with my major in jewellery,
I came up with the idea of making a wearable hot air balloon
model and a foldable brooch.

YITONG HE (KRYSTEN)
80s
My inspiration came from a Chinese movie called ‘80s’.This
movie moved me, not only for its fragile and strong emotion
but also the production of the movie and storyline.
The film tells the story of several families and their
complicated relationships and tragedies.
When I researched this film, I discovered it was adapted
from ‘the glass house’ directed by Li Fangfang. I finally
understood that the real name of this film should be called
the glass house, which inspired ideas for my project.
I also researched glass, plastic and 3D shapes used in
architecture, for example: OFF Portugal’s Glass Cares
(Blown glassware),Selgas Cano (glass building),The National
Theatre structure (half-glass building) and so forth.
In the movie, I found a cold colour palette, which I used
in experiments for my final piece.
I mainly used transparent boards and foams. This is a
maquette for a piece which could be larger and the shape
could be modified in the production process.
I have carefully analysed the fashion trends, and the
production process, to create two pieces which could be
used on a fashion runway.

Surrounded by Water
Over this year I have developed my Fine Art skills even
though I am planning to focus on digital skills in the
future as I decided to study Visual Communications at AUB.
From my point of view all the Fine Art I have learned and I
am still learning will help me to develop better ideas, for
example altered books, and dada project outcomes.
As I always ended up painting or representing something
about ‘Water’ like in my dada project, or the ‘Where I am’
project I displayed something related with the sea.
So, because I was always interested in how to display the
sea I want to take it further and I wanted to learn how
to display water in different techniques such as marbling,
watercolours, acrylics.
First of all, I will display some artists’ works that I
research in order to learn the techniques that they use and
make the most of it before I develop my final piece, such as
Sally Mustang & Ian Davenport.

JIAN HUANG (JANE)
‘Violence’ and ‘Shame’
In the first painting - “Violence”, I used the woman in the
wedding dress to visually identify the victim of the domestic
violence, and used the knife in her hand to represent
resistance, but ironically, women who resist domestic
violence in China are often jailed instead. At the same
time, because they are bound by both family relationships
and violence, I used the “violent” chain as a symbol for
how they are treated. I wanted to make this female image
non- representative. So I tried to hide her appearance to
make her abstract - a symbol rather than a specific person.
In the second painting, “Shame,” I depicted a scene in
which a victim is abandoned in a desolate place. In China,
the description of the uninhabited place is “The cliff on
the horizon and the corner of the sea “, which means the end
of world. This led me to draw waves around the abandoned
woman to create a desolate scene, referring to both the
geographical remoteness and the psychological victim.

Innocence
For my final major project, I had originally planned to
create pieces using Scanography. However, after a trial
I had realised it wasn’t appearing how I had envisioned
it. This meant I then had to try and think of something
else that would create the same impression I had wanted
the scans to hold. Previously I have looked into milk bath
photography and been heavily influenced by Claire Luxton,
her work stands out to me and I feel it is so unique.
Therefore, I decided to progress with my FMP with using the
influence of Claire Luxton and my previous skills from milk
bath photography and create a series of three images that
I feel portray innocence.

Clouds
My inspiration was from the clouds over Bournemouth’s beach.
I am an International student from China, and when I came
to this new city, many things were unknown to me. Whenever
I felt helpless or embarrassed, I always liked to see the
clouds floating in the sky through my window...
In my fashion designs, blue and white represent the sky
and clouds, respectively. The cloud is very soft in my
impression. For this reason, in the choice of fabrics, I
used some soft and comfortable fabrics and techniques such
as knitting & embroidery. Another main fabric used in my
garment is muslin, as I want to show the features of layers
and layers of lightweight clouds in the sky.
The embroidery pattern on the left side of the garment was
inspired by Van Gogh's work ‘The Starry Night’, which shows
the clouds, the stars and the street light combined, and a
feeling of dreams, which I wanted to include in my work.
The thick and soft clouds are like a safe haven. In the
design of this dress I have expressed my dreamful imagining
about clouds.

Dementia-friendly Textile Design
Whilst working in the care industry I have met people from
different walks of life all with a brilliant story to tell.
What saddens me is the condition Dementia which prevents
people from remembering a lot of their cherished memories
and loved ones. For my final major project I wanted to try
and make a difference to these people’s lives using my
chosen pathway of textiles. For this project I sat down
with two people who suffer from the illness to find out their
interests, hobbies and fondest memories from their life.
From this information I used it to sketch designs which
I could use within different methods of printing. I used
a mixture of sublimation, digital, lino block and screen
printing throughout my project.
A photographer who really inspired me whilst researching
was ‘Tom Hussey’ who made a series of photographs where
elderly people look at their younger reflections in a mirror.
This really moved me. The print designer ‘Marimekko’ has
inspired my work as basic representations that she presents
in her work is something my prints have to reflect. Colour
has also been a major part of my FMP, finding the right
colours based on the clients likes and dislikes and also
colours that have been proven to be dementia friendly.
This has been a great project for me, and if it has helped
my client to remember her past, that would give me great
satisfaction.

ROBBIE MORROW
Cover Up
During the UAL Foundation Diploma Course in Art and Design,
I experimented with different media and I was introduced to
research and experimentation.
Researching Dadaism, I discovered collage and a performance
by Hugo Ball dressed as a bishop, and their anti-establishment/
art theme. This inspired me to produce collages in paper
and Photoshop.
Through research of abuse I discovered Elone a German
artist who pasted sanitary pads around her city with
printed messages, and South African artists Jenny Nijenhuis
and Nondumiso Msimanga, who hung out 3000 pairs of soiled
knickers of victims of rape, both of which were highlighting
sexual abuse.
‘Cover-up’ is a performance highlighting sexual abuse by
minorities within churches, but moreover, it highlights the
‘cover-up’ of these crimes by the Church.
My FMP presents first of all an image of normality within
the Church using mixed media, which follows on into a
performance of exposing abuse and the subsequent cover up
of it.

Invisible Matters
In this project I aimed to represent the struggles I have
every day living up to the high expectations society and we
set ourselves.
Social media puts way too much pressure on all of us but
from my perspective I decided to focus on women and mothers.
We all want to seem perfect in some way. But what if we are
already perfect as we are?
I was planning to incorporate text or words as I have a
great passion for them so I started to experiment with
techniques and that’s when I found blind embossing.
Text created with blind embossing is delicate and clean.
It’s invisible from a distance but it’s clearly there,
just as are all those struggles behind the pressure to be
perfect.
The zines supporting this project contain illustration and
text pieces inspired by interviews with other 21st century
women about the fears and challenges they face every day.

ANAIS NORMAN-TOMAS
*Ring Ring*
My chosen topic for my final piece is looking at the lives
of phone sex workers, after I watched a documentary on the
subject and was instantly inspired.
My aim for this project was to show that anyone - of any
age, gender, race, situation - can be a phone sex worker.
I wanted to show the way they can be judged, treated and
how their job can affect them. Likewise, I wanted to show
the client and show that anyone can use them as well. They
include audio, which is a mash-up of different videos and
a dialling tone (playing through hidden speakers), to make
the phones more realistic and give an idea of conversations
and an insight into the character’s lives.
Also, in my body of work, is information and statistics
on people’s opinions of phone sex workers and physical
characteristics they found attractive. This information was
gathered by doing two questionnaires asking over 108 people
in total; I wanted to research this to give an indication
of who people expect to be behind the phone, as well as
investigate any stereotypes people had about them. This was
in order to disprove or confirm these beliefs.

Fragile
My final outcome was to produce two or more bags (rucksack
style) to be presented as my FMP with loads of supporting
work to go along with and I felt I have done what I set out
to do and am very proud of that but there are things I would
change and improve on if I did this project again.
Throughout the project I had a concept of making bags but
was not sure what style of bag to go for, which is when
I made the Ikea bag as a prototype and tester to see if
it could be done and if it was really what I wanted as my
FMP. After designing the bag I shortly realised I wanted
to carry on in a style of destructive anarchy, following on
from my previous ‘structure’ project, while using recycled
materials.

BEATRICE READ
Behind the Lens
For this project, I continued with a previous idea researching
the structure of cameras.
The reason why I decided to study the structure of a camera
is because I’ve always been behind a camera taking photos
and I’ve always been curious as to what is behind the lens.
I undertook primary research by visiting two camera museums
in London and many camera shops, this helped me learn a lot
more about cameras by talking to specialists. This meant
that I was exposed to a wide range of cameras which have
been discontinued or would have been too expensive to buy
for my project.
When it came to developing my final piece I explored various
ways of presenting the images, taking studio shots of the reconstructed
cameras, as well as making anthotypes of them. I
then returned to cyanotypes (which I had experimented with
before), as this is one of the first printing techniques
and relates with the old styles of cameras I have chosen to
study and reconstruct.
Overall my final piece is a series of re-constructed cameras,
of which I have taken both film and digital photos, and
presented as a series of cyanotypes. Also I have created
a book of photos to display along with the re-constructed
cameras.

The Nerve of Some People
This final piece is a representation of the structural
composition found within nervous tissue. It was my primary
focus for this project to research the central nervous
system, specifically the pathways within the brain and to
depict their form in a physical model.
Continuing from the previous project, where inspiration
came from a two photon microscopic image, I decided to
create this artwork, focussing on the anatomy of the cells
and their respective forms.
This was accomplished by drawing the various cells digitally
where they were then laser etched onto 3mm cast acrylic,
each layer slightly different to create a more immersive
model.
The outcome: A simplistic, clean illustration of neurons
and neuroglia, used as both an aesthetically pleasing model
and an educational tool.

Music video
I’ve had this idea of a fan-made music video since last
summer – I originally wanted to make it as a personal
project, however I realised it would make a great final
major project as it’s quite ambitious and requires a lot
of work. I carried out research into music videos as a
genre to better understand how it connects the viewer with
the music. I was heavily inspired by visuals-driven and
conceptual videos that are more art than just storytelling.
The video was filmed and edited like a standard music video,
then I drew over every frame to create an animation. This
let me utilise my interest in digital drawing and creating
very visuals-driven videos. I tried my best to make a video
that complements the music, expresses the same theme and
creates a harmonious duo. The result was a loose narrative
centred around the breakdown of a relationship.
I’m hoping this project could extend into future freelance
work. I would love to work with artists and specialise in
making animated music videos alongside my animation studies
at university and afterwards.

Fundamental Error of The Plastic Age
Nights of scrolling down social media reading the odd bit
of positive news but mostly bad news about the climate, led
me to think: is it actually a climate emergency? I carried
out a range of research from documentaries to looking at the
inspirational works of Kurt Jackson who has strong concerns
for the environment, Sue Lipscombe’s plastic Bristol Whales
and Steve Cutts whose work conveys the honest reality of
the modern world. From there I decided I wanted to base my
project around plastic pollution to create something with
substance and meaning. I live by the sea which is beautiful
yet spoiled with plastic which gave me inspiration for what
I wanted to do.
I started collecting single use plastic waste from myself
and peers in the studio then experimented with photography
and the effectiveness of cyanotypes, printing and collages
to eventually pull all my strengths in these techniques as
well as all my primary and secondary research together to
produce a large scale, mixed media painting that’s pleasing
to look at but carries a message about a prominently raised
subject that keeps being swept under the rug. My painting
represents us and our harm to the environment.

Wave Chase
Band merchandise, something that everyone has and probably
will buy again in their life. But if you’re like me then
you’d be bored of an overpriced hoodie with the band’s name
slapped in the middle of the chest. For my project I have
looked at creating band merchandise and how they could
advertise themselves which isn’t filtered to only the band’s
name.
I started by looking into some well-known bands and what
could be found on their merch stalls. I then decided what
attire I would make; what you can see here today. For this
project, I wanted to stray away from the band name and use
the lyrics from some of their songs and use their words to
inspire my designs. My t-shirts were heavily inspired by
skate/ surf styles and driven by a desire to make my work
commercially focused. Having to learn how to screen print
took my work from being on paper, to being on the t-shirts
and hoodies.

What’s it Like to be Free from the Weight of Giving a Sh*t?
Through this exhibition I have combined one of the biggest
issues of today, Plastic Pollution, with my driven desire
to help others make their way to a more self-aligned life.
It’s a project created to get a reaction and allow change.
To express the urgency of this issue, I have created a
jacket purely from recycled materials. I have combined
lost items that stir your thoughts. The jacket is an anticonforming
statement to society. This supports others to
feel free to dress the way they WANT and not give a damn!
The surrounding pieces are my fashion photography and magazine
layouts, focusing on my future goals and aspirations to work
in fashion marketing. These share the work of people who
are different and doing things their way. It also provides
tips and mindful ideas to those who are inspired by this.
The pages include my own productions, photographs and
doodles. Inspired by magazines like flow, Dazed and oh comely,
I have created a few focused double-page spreads, designed
to be as different and free as possible, challenging the
norms to really convey that message to the audience.

relationship between my father and brother, with an age gap
of 53 years between them for this, as they look so alike,
and yet have not spoken in 10 years.
After researching hyper realism, I wanted my pieces of work
to have a very real feel to them, whilst also bringing
forward some form of emotion in the subjects. My aim was to
raise the question of whether family is a matter of blood
or a title that is earned through love and respect.

For this final project I wanted to draw people's attention
to a man called Peter Tobin. My aim was to create an
installation showcasing who he was, what he did and his
effect on people.
I felt that it was disrespectful to include information
about his victims so I instead incorporated photography to
try to reflect what these women might have gone through.
In addition to the photography aspect of my aim, I have
developed my skills in painting - focussing more on
portraits as that was something I had not done before.
Using my knowledge of criminology and psychology into
criminal behaviour, I developed an artistic response to
a case I know of, from my own research. I have studied
this case in my personal time and had never thought to do
anything creative related to it.
Whilst exploring the case I came to see that there is not
currently any artwork related to it or any cases similar so
I enjoyed the challenge, seeing how I can create something
thought-provoking and in some ways beautiful out of something
really quite sinister.

Identity
Identity can relate to many different aspects of an
individual- their cultural background, their gender, their
physical appearance...
My focus into this topic was how social standards and the
media pressure us to change who we are and conform with
social expectations.
We are a world of digital natives - those who have never
lived in a world without the internet. With the average
brit checking their phone as often as 28 times a day, I felt
as though I wanted to show the effects of this.
Looking at artists such as Ant Carver and Kemi Mai who use
portraiture to promote powerful imagery, I wanted send a
message of how society is manipulative and dangerous.

LEWIS WOODWORTH
Sci-Fi Ballistic Vest Prop
My piece has changed a lot from my initial idea of a bulky
costume and I decided to go for a more sleek and lightweight
design.
I have decided that this piece would be best used for
theatre, a piece for a convention/promotional use or for a
themed area (such as at a theme park or themed maze). I have
never made a costume using foam so this was a big step for
me. I have definitely learned that this is a time-consuming
project.
For research I watched a few Sci-Fi films and have been
watching tutorials and gaining tips/ideas from You-Tube
content creators.
Next year I plan on working on my skills as a chef and
creating more costumes and props to hone my skills, I would
like to visit comic-cons and conventions to display my
pieces and learn from cos players I will meet there. From
there I would like to apply for university to study model
making and learn new methods.

The Historical and Contemporary Chinese Interior Design
Through this project, I am looking at the Chinese interior
design. I know, Chinese interior design went through many
different periods. So, my study and work will mainly focus
on the most famous and prolific periods of Chinese history—
Ming and Tang Dynasties. I did a lot of research on the
characteristics, the main elements of historical Chinese
interior design, as well as the recent trends in contemporary
design. For the artist, I took reference from the work and
concepts of Antoni Gaudí and Yang Bangsheng (a Chinese
interior designer).
As I am Asian, I really want to show and use Chinese style
and analyse how those periods changed the style of interior
design. Therefore, I made an interior paper model as a
plan. I did a couple of experimental works using paper
straws and wooden sticks to make some building models. By
extending the previous ‘structure’ project, I choose to use
the circular shape for the exterior wall.
I have created a completed paper model with a perfect floor
plan with some successful practical work.

Freedom
In general, people have too many things they need to think
about. When they remember one thing, they will forget
another.
Additionally, people find it is hard to prioritise: especially
in the busy world of today.
For this reason, I have created ‘freedom’, an app which
helps people collect together their to-do lists.
I investigated the vast majority of existing software on
the market, including the standard to do list App, which is
based on The Eisenhower Method, but my research shows it
is used for more strategic thinking and is not suitable for
daily tasks. My survey report of sixty people shows that
nearly half of the people often don't know what they should
be doing and often delay the more important things, it also
seems that about 80% of people suffer from procrastination
and inefficiency.
I researched the existing theory further, and as a result
I made this humanity app for daily events; it can manage
tasks more efficiently and improve time utilisation.

I want to create an integrated language system to compare
the nothingness in Buddhism, Taoism, and physics context.
There is a hidden route that firstly begins with the wormholelike
shape which indicates a bridge between the outer and
inner world, thing and non-thing, macro and micro space.
For the Buddhist section, I researched the theory of
Mādhyamaka and tried to emphasize the emptiness of the
worldly matters, that can be easily changed as if the
reflection on the water.
The thing and nothing are opposite equivalently but also
has a chronological order in Taoism. Everything is derived
from the Dao and the thing is generated from nothing. The
white light represents the very first thing. It can produce
all the other visible lights, while the black implying the
origin of the thing.
Humans have been seeking for the ultimacy of the world
for thousands of years, but when we drive our curiosity
deeper, the upcoming sight is constantly besieged by new
questions. What can we see when the light is on? The peep
holes represent the limitation of what I or we know. All
of us are looking at the world with restricted boundaries.

The Ship of Theseus
For the final major project, I have created work based on
a paradox that I was really interested in while I learnt
about it in a psychology course in high school. This is
called ‘The Ship of Theseus’, and describes a ship that has
been at sea for hundreds of years, as soon as a piece of
wood rots, it is replaced, until all of the features are
not the first ones.
Is the resulting ship the same ‘Theseus’ or a different
ship altogether? If not the original ship, at what point is
it no longer the original ship?
I have developed this idea by also looking at human memory
and Alzheimers, and I have designed a garment based on this
concept.
