Week one: What is Ethics?
At first, listening to the brief given was slightly daunting because it sounded so complicated! I decided to research the definition of the word 'Ethics' and came to my own personal conclusion that ethics is all about cultural and political issues within society. Between what's good about the world and what's bad.
Tutorial with Alex: 18/2/2010
I explained my idea to Alex who helped me with a few ideas. Because I was looking at bibical garments he suggested that I research into very old costume and dress-pre fashion and the religious and political meaning behind it. Other ideas included:
+The garment having a personal riligious or cultural meaning to it that's hidden within the garment concealing it so only the person wearing the garment knows about it. Wether that be in the pocket etc.
+Breaking the cycle of consumerism
+Adapting existing clothes making it special to the person.
+How pattern and textiles can be used to single people out
I need to start thinking about textures and colour that I can use to create knit samples.
