MEDIUM 8- ART/CRAFTS/FASHION

Grave Ciao

Grace Ciao is an artist from Singapore who uses flower petals in her fashion work.
This is not the typical way to relate fashion designs and that's the reason it is so special and unique. The use of these petals not only shows how you can create beautiful designs from petals but shows and links with my project. The fact the artist, Ciao is using real petals shows how she is wanting to preserve and keep the petals to live longer. This is just one of the ways we have tried to preserve flowers from living things to dead and sometimes dried objects.
I find this very inspiring as the use of the petals to create something new is exciting and shows how more than one medium can create something completely new. 

This links to my project as the fact flowers and woodland in general is living and breathing shows how as a human rave we want to try and preserve the flowers and we will find ways to do so because we don't like the fact the flower have an end. This works the same with humans and the use of petals to create more art shows how we can prolong there 'life'. 

Below are two examples of her work:
