Lace Movie
This video has been shortlisted for YouTube Play. See the shortlist at / play This video was made in collaboration between myself Dana Haim and Learke Hooge Andersen. We made this during our MA Textiles Futures course at Central Saint Martins in London. The video was part of a biomimicry project where we were very much inspired by the glowing creatures of the deep sea as well as weird formations in the human body to inform new approaches in design. We wanted to create a kind of hybrid of the two using this costume that we made specifically for this video. We used several kinds of recycled materials to create the costume such as left over tights, ribbons, and beads. The dancer in the video is Supitchanga Vanasirikul.
