About The Work:
Second Skin [Deconstructing the Fashion Leather Aesthetic] is an ongoing practice-led research project visualising the 2D and 3D exploration of leather and suede garments. Sculptural Volume + Reconstructed Shimmer celebrate the dichotomy of our relationship with leather fashion by capturing how beautifully digital innovation can sit alongside traditional artisanal handcraft processes to create contemporary outputs.
