Resurgence

No matter how strong, happy or successful one is, each person passes through phases in their life where their energy is lost, where an old skin is shed, or where things just seem to fall apart – at these times a sense of wholeness is lost. People, whether consciously or not, go through phases of deconstruction, deformation, and eventual reunion with themselves, returning to what they feel is whole. These various phases are represented in the collection through bold volumes, cuts and layering, and the shredding of fabrics which are then re-formed into a whole.
