I felt the freedom to start a very personal project where I wanted to dive deeper in my heartbreak of losing my brother. My brother meant the world to me and even though we had quite the age gap, we were close. I looked up to him and could not believe it when he had passed. For this project I dove inside his clothing. He cared for his clothes and had a specific personal style. Some of his cloting was such a staple for him we all knew him in it. Including this shirt on the right with the 0. I tried to incorporate these special items into something new, completely inspired by him.
My brother was a famous hip-hop artist during his time on this earth, and this was something I also wanted to add in this project. In a previous project I designed textile that makes sound by touching it. I took my brother’s music and formed it into something new. New tones that make you feel consolidated when hearing them. When one would lay their head on my shoulder they would be the next ones that would get consolidation. A chain of pain and love.
