A Level Work



This is some work i produced during my A levels coursework and exam work.





A corset i made inspired by the theme The Man Made World. I chose to concentrate on the idea of rubbish and waste as it is a consequence of the man made world. The corset is partially constructed from real pieces of rubbish an decorated with it as well as other textile techniques, the idea of a corset was inspired by the appearance of a crushed drinks can the same way a corset crushes the waist. I was shortlisted for my college art prize for this piece of work and won runner up.





A cape insoired by the theme Mystery and Imagination, i concentrated on the theme of religion as it has always been something that has fascinated me  especially religious art, ceremony and artifacts It is a traditional style priest vestment but modernized as it has been shortened, i used a variety of textile technique to achieve a highly decorative appearance. These photos were also styled and taken by me as part of a photo shoot i arranged for my portfolio...


Ink, Brusho, Bleach and Biro illustration of an angel gravestone - under the theme of Mystery and Imagination


Painting of rosary beads on wallpaper - acrylic paint and biro


Life drawing - chalk and charcoal


Illustration of a stag beetle - Ink




A dress inspired by the theme of insects - created a dress that looked as if it had been stored away in an attic for decades and had been ravished by insects and it had become their new home. i used a variety of techniques to make it look old but still beautiful, i also made the insects themselves highly decorative as to beautify something ugly. This dress also explored an interest i have in theatrical costume.
