Ghost In The Machine
Abstract
This dress is a selection from my thesis collection entitled ‘Caves of Flesh and Machine.’ The collection was initially inspired by the work of H.R. Giger, and focuses on the idea of biomechanicalism. The pieces combine natural and synthetic textiles to symbolize the contrast of biology and the mechanics present in H.R. Giger’s dark futuristic illustrations. The predominant theme of the collection is life versus death as a greater symbol of biomechanicalism
