“Life is nothing without a little chaos to make it interesting.”
Chaos is a woven design collection intended to embrace dysfunctionality in what we call life. This collection is originally inspired by major changes occurring in our world today. A little over 100 years ago, the Spanish flu pandemic brought great distress and tragedy to the world. Once a solution was found, people celebrated and decided to have a lot of chaotic fun. This was known as the roaring 20’s- a time of social change and new technologies. As we now enter the 20’s once again, and we start to find solutions, it is hopeful that we will have another “roaring 20’s.” I hope for a joyful time of chaotic fun and social changes for the future. My goal is to capture the illusion of chaos within my designs.
