macro trend: SS18

For our group trend project, we decided on REJECTION/REBELLION as a theme, and my chosen macro trend within that is to focus on the growing talk around body positivity and femininity. My tutorial with Noel Chapman helped me to look at this theme in more of a seasonal, temporary way, looking at the body, female form and skin for a trend focus, while still being able to include my interest in the area of body positivity and feminism. After my initial gallery research I looked into inspiration from artists and makers that focus on these themes, such as Maisie Cousins (pictured) and Jackie Dives. I will also look at female art collectives to find more inspiration before I begin creating my own work for my mood boards.
