Textile eating insects have caught my attention throughout my process. They leave traces and create their own unique textile manipulation.
My focus lays on garment manipulation and deconstruction. I am working with codes and attributes in classic clothing pieces, such as the blazer, breaking them open and shifting them.

I am having fun with clothing codes by destroying the strictness, stiffness, tidiness and location of them.
