+URBAN CAMOUFLAGE PROJECT 06
++Knitted Room

For some reason, the scene of the film, House of Cards, where an autistic little girl got body painting on herself during her art-psychotherapy session, has been indelibly imprinted on my mind from the first time I saw the scene in my childhood, while I vaguely remember the plot and other features of the film.

This project went more private and the initial idea could be considered as a confession of almost painful memories of the psychological uneasiness of my childhood which still attacks me from time to time and a cure by hiding myself and escaping from the reality to the fantasy.

The lines, as fine as you can get with digital graphics, were re-interpreted as delicate threads, braided, knitted and upholstered to become extended to the patterns. These knitted patterns, printed in grayscale with light and shadow effect, are graphically applied onto the fashion and interior product, making a camouflage scene.
