STORM
Inspired by the sounds, smells and intense flashes of lightning one very hot and humid night, Storm combines origami folding techniques with the paper-like properties of cotton organdie fabric. This arrangement of stitched pyramids evokes memories of the electrically charged air and the dark, menacing sky, streaked with flashes of lightning.
