Blooming Fold

Folding and cutting are treated as forms of structural reasoning rather than decoration, tested against the demands of a body moving on stage. Traditional geometries are recalculated as load-bearing structures that open and close with the wearer’s movements. The work asks what remains of a heritage technique once it is placed in the hands of computational tools.
