Fabrics Inspired by Botany

For my personal investigation I chose the theme of botany as I knew this project would keep me interested and could lead me in several directions, in terms of my project. After taking many photos and gathering lots of research from artists and other secondary photos I was able to start experimenting with samples and techniques such as weaving, printing, dying, stitching, sewing that then developed into samples such as screen printed and tie-dyed fabric, cut and fray samples, and fabric manipulation. All of this came together to inspire and create my final piece. A cut and fray printed panel skirt piece.
