Bloody Gemstone Blouse

Digital Print   |   2019   |   Pattern Making

The project, „Bloody Gemstone“ deals with the topic of menstruation and an aesthetic solution for a digital print on a blouse. A fabric design was created and an individual pattern for the blouse was developed.

 

The unpleasant and usually embarrassing topic is picked up and communicates directly, as the menstrual blood stains are placed over the entire blouse.

Process

The digital print is based on the forms of bleeding that have remained on pieces of toilet paper during menstruation. Dried, scanned and digitally re-coloured, new interesting structures emerge. Ornaments were created to cover the entire blouse with superimposed “blood splashes”.
