Within my costuming, I fixate on pulling the fantastical characters I portray from various medias out into our realistic mortal realm. If that character stepped out of their 2D plane into our 3 dimensional world…how would they look? What in their appearance or personality would dictate how they take up space? How could their garb more effectively capture their core identity? I obsess over colliding the two sides of a binary together in art, looking for the place in the middle where opposite aesthetics attract. I challenge myself to think like a chameleon when designing the various intricate details on my costumes.
