Throughout my creative journey, I've harnessed the power of conceptual fashion and print design to engage with and respond to the pressing issues of our time. My toolkit spans diverse mediums—from illustration to printmaking to fashion design—allowing me to bring my ideas to life with versatility and depth. As a fashion and fashion print designer, I've boldly explored conceptual art, employing daring silhouettes and prints to convey my vision and perspectives. I've fearlessly tackled themes such as the male gaze, societal restraints, and inequality, using my work as a platform for social commentary and introspection. Now, for my Final Major Project, I've explored global issues and anxieties, immersing myself in the unsettling imagery of a dystopian future. Feeling a deep sense of responsibility as a designer, I've peered into the unknown, driven by a dual purpose: to evoke urgency by depicting a dystopian reality, while simultaneously envisioning a utopian horizon.
