This work playfully explores the hole as a phenomenon in design and philosophy. Holes are often treated as a flaw or a defect – here they are reconsidered as sites of potential and design. Using a process-orientated approach, the work traces the hole, its form, impact and surroundings. The result is a series of textile samples that examine emptiness and wholeness, absence and presence. These are then developed into clothing articles, which instead of hiding the hole, encircle, emphasise and celebrate it.
