BA (Hons) Textile Design
Chelsea Breen-Haynes
Chelsea-Jay is an illustrative designer who portrays loved ones through print and embroidery. The Fabrics of a Home tells the tale of individuals in a fun and unique way through linear and pointillist styles. This project looks back at three individuals, exploring their personal memories throughout the decades in a style suited to their uniqueness. With the ability to connect and sympathise with the people who inspire the work, a sense of personal history is brought to life in an entertaining and playful way.
The designs will be adapted into interior textile collections as this is the space where families come together. The project will inform the concept of creating a small company which specialises in creating personalised prints, the perfect gift for a loved one.
