Join us today and tomorrow for Material to Metaverse with Colin Bell and Joanna O’Brien.

This workshop explores fashion and textile design through collage, mixed media experimentation, and digital visualisation. Participants begin by creating a mood board to define a theme, then develop paper and textile collages to explore colour, texture, and concept generation.

These ideas are subsequently translated into digital renderings and short films to visualise the textile functioning as a garment, costume, jammies, or accessory.

The Fashion the Future project is supported by the National Lottery Fund through Creative Scotland.
