I’ve added photos and videos from my show to a website that I made specifically for the show, siphonophorae.com. The show went pretty well, although making the mannequins and setting up the hanging system was a lot more work than I had expected. Thanks to everyone who helped me set up in the gallery!

I’ve also added a new piece to the Textiles section called Mimicry. It was one of the pieces that was in my show. Here is a short description:

Some sea creatures, such as flounders and octopi, are able to camouflage themselves, mimicking their surroundings. This defense mechanism makes them invisible to their predators, allowing them to stay safe. Using this concept, I have created a dress that changes to match the color of its surroundings.

I’ve added video for Hybridization, Under the Surface and Mimicry, showing the interactiveness of each piece. I’m so glad to finally be able to share these videos for these pieces. My favorite video is definitely the one for Under the Surface.

I’ve made it a bit less cluttered and removed most of lightbox. It’s now a bit easier to see the description for each piece as well. Individual pieces can now also be linked to, and they will expand automatically (ex. this link will take you to the Ribcage Bag.)

I’ve added the Hybridization project to the main site, and updated a few images for the Gloomy Skirt that I took a few months ago. I plan to update a few more images with better ones as well over the next few days or so. I’m also going to be taking and uploading videos for a few of the projects.

As for things to come, I’m going to be working on the shop section of the website over the next month or so. I want to change a few things and make it easier to use.
