Incrementum Interritus

Through my project Incrementum interritus (growth and decay), I examine alternative methods of making and disposing of garments through collaboration with organisms and their natural processes.

Through collaboration with nature and her processes to grow, make and decompose my pieces, I explore organic design methods as a way in which to create sustainable media and materials and contribute to a narrative in which nature and humans work as one.
