decay. a peculiar source of inspiration to some, including me. everything descends into decay/ chaos. this is a fact of life. a law ,even, of science. by embracing its (decay) imminence, i take proactive steps to face it "better" by trying age well and gracefully- yes, i think of these things even if i have barely reached my prime. this thought extends to my other endeavors as well... especially, design.
i've always thought of how my clothes, like some plants can "die beautifully"; and try to recreate the "state of breaking apart" and highlighting that fragility, which i find extremely beautiful.
this photo set is an exercise in bringing out that fragility exactly by breaking the material apart.
like everything is hanging on a thread....
