'Midsummer Days Dream' is a textile collection inspired by classical mythology and my personal relationship with the warmer months. Through hand-painted motifs, I explore the narratives of Greco-Roman symbolisms, blending these with my own daydreams of indulgent, sunlit days. My designs celebrate the festive nature of the seasons, using vibrant, painterly motifs to explore the magic of summer and spring, highlighting the creativity and storytelling inherent in my textile design practice.
