Tactile Terrain is a nature inspired material collection focusing on how light interacts with environmental elements and surfaces. Each sample is a dimensional textile surface designed to mimic a natural texture or rhythm found in landscapes. Through combinations of fabric manipulation, embellishment, and graphic surface techniques, this series reflects my curiosity for exploring and experimenting with construction methods, materials, colors, and hands-on making.
