The Solution
I made a garment out painted tracing paper, I first painted the tracing
paper with a mix of blue I and white acrylics and then I crumpled the paper; I
cut the tracing paper and started adhering the pieces, at the end I fashioned
the dress with the flowers and the collar.
The purpose of my garment was to create a dress for my family while my
grandmother was in surgery, to achieve this intention I had to think about how
I felt in that moment and how was the family in that time. I chose that kind of
blue because it’s a relaxing. The purpose of the flowers on the left side is to
protect the heart, for this idea I got inspired by an armor I saw at the Met
museum.
