Sculpted Space
University of Borås, Faculty of Textiles, Engineering and Business.
2024 (English)Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor of Fine Arts), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis [Artistic work]
Abstract [en]

This degree work delved into the intersections of fashion and art, specifically focusing on creating wearable knitted sculptures. For this, the presented project considered the idea of designing spatially, without a human body as a reference, by shaping knitted forms inside a scaffolding. The exploration began with an in-depth investigation of knitting to identify different form expressions through merging and manipulating traditional knitting techniques such as plain, transfer, and partial knitting. Three knitted wearable sculptures were developed based on the knitting experiments by creating stripes on the knitting in a fully fashioned way. Further on, these wearable sculptures underwent various steps of development, such as sculpting, draping, and surface modification.
