Forensic Dress

The dress/coat is printed with everything that stains - blood, Ribena, rust and red wine. It is made with domestic textiles, Victorian tea towels, net curtains, mattress ticking, dishcloths and blankets.

The coat has hidden within it's detail and petticoats the tale of two lovers told through the need to explore the piece forensically in order to find out which one killed the other and why.

Current Research

My work widely spans the arts, sciences and new technology fields. I produce projects which illuminate aspects of science and well being in ways that directly interact with the public, with the broad aim of helping individuals reach their full creative potential. More recently I have begun to focus my creative energy on working in collaboration with other Universities to solve global problems.
