thus, my tutor helped me and I corrected my artist statement.
I also wrote down about my study experience and what I have learnt in LIPC in DMU.
I tried to introduce myself and my thought rather than my works.
Finally, my tutor checked mine and I uploaded on Google plus for website.
"I am a contour
designer and my designs are based on gender identity. I am interested in the
gender roles by exploring the common factors which both genders can share in
depth to create new unique style. These days, unisex design is an emerging
trend in the world of fashion and there are also many gender neutral brands and
labels, such as ‘One DNA’ and ‘Too Good’. Their designs changed my perception about
the gender identity by providing the same design for both genders.
Moreover, ‘Too Good’ has
seven collections and each has different theme, which is simple and distinctive,
and they have expressed the classical and contemporary simplicity through
clothing. Many people may think each gender has to wear different clothing in
the aspects of size, function and roles. However, I think they can share all of
those with just different cut. Thus, I want to design male underwear and female
lingerie in gender neutral design.
I like working with
various kinds of fabrics such as silk, lace and chiffon. Thus, I am looking
forward to exploring new fabrics that I have not used before for my designs and
new materials which can be merged with the lingerie.
I have developed many
skills, such as different types of drawing, digital skills, portfolio and
sketchbook work. Furthermore, I am looking forward to beginning my Contour
Design Degree in October in DMU."
This is my artist statement.
