WEEK 8 10/11/11 Garment Deconstruction

boiibiviyThis week we were continuing the exercise with Tailored Jacket. However this time we had to deconstruct it and take apart pieces which it is made from in a way we want it. The patterns we got we arranged on the chair. The exercise was to develop the given shapes and create new.

We were asked to try the pieces in different ways. We played with jacket to get many ideas for the actual design.

          


When we achieved the unique shape we were happy with we took the structure of the chair and put it onto the mannequin. Then we started to play arond with it to get different ideas and explore new exciting shapes... That are the designs we came up with.

                                              The final deconstruction on and off the chair...

         

Sketchbook work...

I personally think a work of Hussein Chalayan is worth to look at when playing with idea of deconstruction.

Interesting artist to look at: Anthony Cragg and his 'hundred sculptors at any one time'.

Tara Donovan and her inspiring sculptural forms based on her ability to see, imagine and create forms, shapes and textures. What I think is essential to create innovative design based on deconstruction.
