Final Major Project 

'Mirage' Spring Summer 2016 

Ethereal and fleeting, Mirage exists in a world of filtered beauty amidst what is real and what is imaginary. Spring summer 2016 sees a fresh, atmospheric feminine mood viewing the world through rose coloured glasses and embracing a sense of obscurity.  A hand rendered subtly altered, digital aesthetic results in distortion and abstraction seen not as imperfection but as contemporary, exquisite elegance.
