For this project I pulled a lot of inspiration from Diana Al-Hadid. Her work to me reminds me of the underworld/ruins of a past empire so in my piece I thought of creating someone who was the ruler of that world. I used twine like string and wire to create my costume and was really pleased with how it turned out. If I were to add any more detail or alterations I would add more layers of the string falling down my body at different levels (ie a wire with string around my chest, around my hips, etc). As I finished the piece I realized it also acts as some home decor when hung up so definitely will be looking into how to display it better!

Very expressive piece. Interesting that you took the work of Al-Hadid a Syrian-American and made a “veil” like mask/headdress.
