She Was Here

This piece serves as a visceral record of a mother’s transition. Using a simplified graphic of a mother and daughter alongside intimate journal entries, the corset captures the duality of parenting: the immense pride in a child’s growth and the sharp ache of their departure.Constructed with traditional steel boning and computer-printed cotton, the garment acts as a structural vessel for memory. It is paired with a 100% silk gauze chemise, inspired by historical undergarments, to evoke the delicate, layered vulnerability of the domestic past.
