Nuclear Winter Theory 01 Photograph

I'm an emerging artist born and based in London. I currently study at the university of the arts London (London college of fashion campus). I'm studying BA 3D effects for fashion and performance. A specialist subject exploring set design for catwalks and theatre. As well as learning how to design and realise a costume, fashion piece, prop. I am inspired by wearable sculpture artists such as iris van Herpen and Rebecca horn. I consider my artwork mixed media. A combination of fashion photography, performance and sculpture. The model wearing one of my pieces is experiencing the art. How it feels on the skin, the weight and the smell. This is all captured in a photograph. So, the viewer is not just experiencing the piece alone, but is experiencing the piece though someone else's lived experience. This is my first time selling my work online. I've received a positive response on social media. Being shared on lovelies interiors on Instagram who has a 100k following. My first collection is based on the nuclear weapon crisis the world is experiencing. I strongly believe we need to dispense of these weapons of mass destruction. My artwork explores the nuclear winter theory which explores the environmental effects nuclear war has on the planet.
