This project was the result of both, my faszination with occupational therapy, a seemingly senseless activity, it‘s sole purpose to keep oneself occupied, and from my disdain for senseless textile design, created from nothing, and for nothing more than to pleasure the eye.
My design was to be derived from the result of occupational therapy to complete the task outlined above. I used two of the most simple graphical elements: Dots and lines. Once the task was completed I photographed the space. These images then formed the design which I digitally printed onto fabric.
