Vanishing species are veterans in the war against encroachment on their territories, hunting for their body parts, and the battle against changing climates. This inspired me to use war surplus fabrics to express both the toughness of their battle and their fragility.
Materials
War surplus tarp, burlap sacking, erosion control fabric, emergency homeless blanket, cheesecloth, microcell foam, fabric paint, glue
Techniques
flat patterning, draping, raw edge appliqué, hand stitching
