Lizet -For Fantastic forgeries-

My starting point was to figure out what I miss in textile. When I went to Première Vision, a textile event I realized that al the textiles have different colours, prints and materials but we don’t have a extra layer, a 3th dimension in fabric. In my work I make that extra dimension. It’s an added value in textile, the fabric will have movement, volume and every time a different shadow.

For “Fantastic forgeries” I created a new woven technique with fabric. We choose an artwork from a exposition to copy this object in your own technique. I use the carpet of Albert Van huffel. The focus was to find a way that I can fold different layers of fabric into each other and that it would stay in the position without sewing.

For “Tools of the trade” I created a tool that is a heat press itself. With this tool you can press 3 dimension prints in textile. “Tools of the trade” is a starting point for my graduation collection. My final collection is going to be based on the concept of our rich fantasy memories and positive escapism. The stories that we believed as children and fantasy stories that we created in our head are the biggest inspiration.
