The knitted Screen
The screen was developed from the inspiration of the corset. Then motorised to show the contortion and manipulation in forced by the undergarment on the female body.
Women Defined
The knitted screen was the statement piece of my degree show. It displayed images of everyday women that everyone can identify with. These are not high flyer's, celebrities, or the rich and famous. But women that you know, mothers, sisters, friends and wives. They have jobs and lives that define them but they define themselves. No longer are they corseted and hidden from view. Women today can speak out and make statements about who they are. Most important the have the choice to be who they want to be.
The video projected on the screen was accompanied by Musician and writer Heather Muir. Heather is an accomplished viola player and orchestra member, living in the North of Scotland.
