Carys Whitehouse, who graduated this summer with a First Class Honours in Woven Textiles has started her Masters at the Royal College of Art this week.

Carys’ final collection, a combination of hand woven textiles, jacquards, digital prints and sculpture, reflected on how we express anxiety both consciously and unconsciously. This took the form of drawing and sculptures exploring her own anxieties as well as examining “medicine as a form of escapism from societal anxieties.” Her collection was developed using materials and processes which were entirely free from animal products for a gender-neutral fashion market.

We wish Carys all the best with her next 2 years of post-graduate studies.
