ELMWOOD STUDIO LIVE BRIEF
Brief
Create a hand made outcome for a commercial and/or charitable purpose.
Solution
Illustrated are images taken from photos of histology slides; microscopic samples of tissue used for research and diagnosis. They have been printed onto fabric for people who suffer from skin conditions and have to buy certain clothes and bedding. The images have been drawn in a way to be decorative and something you can be proud to own. They are designed to be a celebration of skin. Objects that raise awareness whilst removing stigma.
Hand drawn illustrations have been scanned and edited in Photoshop to create a repeating pattern, before being printed digitally on fabric. The fabric has then been sewn to the correct dimensions of a duvet cover and pillow cases. T-shirts were also produced using clothing patterns.
