Explorations for Scales
I started my explorations creating scales using origami technique with paper.
Further i transformed this exploration into different materials and tried to explore more on fabrics with different techniques and mediums.
Here i have tried to abstract the form of scales.
Machine knit and Heat set techniques are used here.
In this exploration i have done layering and cutting.
Here i have used pleating and tucking techniques.
Explorations using unconventional materials.
Explorations for Fins
Here i tried to create a little abstraction in the form and the patterns of fins.
3D explorations of Skeletons
Here i have tried to create the structure of the skeleton by interlacing paper stripes.
Further I tried to replicate the structure by braiding.
Here i have tried to replicate the texture of the body of Pomfret fish onto the fabric.
