The work of Alice Pickworth inspired me greatly, as she is a print designer she screen prints large designs using various dyes including reactive, acid and pigment printing.
The scale of her work is amazing and I would love to work with large amounts of fabric; to do this shows scale and context of the work and the pattern is appreciated more. I like how she layers the design with different colours. the texture of her prints works well and shows the different colours coming through each layer. I want to work with various dyes in the print room and exploring acid dye creating brighter coloured prints.
This print from the degree show website shows her use of colour and beautiful drawings, its almost mesmerising! In third year I want to create repeat pattern using the same technique as Alice uses, I think it will be out of my comfort zone but it is something I've been wanting to try, even though my digital skills aren't too good I really want to explore this further and would love to create a print in this scale and technique.
