COME WHAT MAY

THIS IS A PROJECT THAT HAS SPUN OFF FROM THE WHO AM i AND WHERE DO i COME FROM WHERE THE GARMENT IS MADE FROM VARIOUS YARNS THAT HAVE BEEN THROWN AWAY, DONATED OR THE MESSY YARN N THE FLOORS. i TOOK THESE SORT THREADS AND TIED THEM INTO ONE UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DOCUMENT THIS PROCESS BUT CAN SHOW YOU ALL WHERE i'm AT WITH IT.

THE CONCEPT:
come what may is a series of jerseys which hold ideas where the first as about who am i and where do i come from based on the story of a life and how the story manufactures the me's that we are. The next garment is the raglan pattern jersey named DIS-FUNCTIONAL JESUS REJECT. The jersey holds the idea or standard that the machine aesthetic is easy and is seen as perfect whilst what we do with our hands is imperfect due to human error and time consuming. The concept draws its roots here where the human error is seen as beauty and how the machine aesthetic has also claimed a large piece of our Jesus also known as Earth due to mass-consumption and mass-waste. The jersey uses dis-functional ways of knitting where the ribs are thin and have moss stitch in odd areas. The general surfaces are quite textural due to tied bits now in the eyes of machinery and mass production this is a flaw but what does Earth say about the mass-waste is that a flaw?
