Magnetite

Information

Magnetite aims to reinvigorate an appreciation for natural and scientific wonders of the world through magnets. The magnetic textiles created in this collection, display the richness, mystery and wonder that is felt when witnessing magnetic forces.
Natural silk, hematite and iron sand filings encorporate the natural world into the embellishments of these textiles, while utilising traditional textile processes.
I am a textile designer passionate about exploring embellishment and texture for apparel. I take my inspiration from the natural and scientific world and combine them together in one garment. I specialise in beading, hand embroidery and digital embroidery to create rich and luxurious textiles.
