Biocarpet

The purpose of the artistic work Biocarpet-Apple Murex Egg casing is the realization of innovative textile structures that differ from the traditional way of forming textile surfaces. The work analyzes the influence of biomimetics in the context of nonwoven textile development with special emphasis on textile design and art. It enables the transformation and improvement of classical forms and primary functions of textiles into a visually new and utilitarian form, by applying appropriate biomimetic content. In addition, the aim of this work of art is to investigate the potentials of materials and characteristics of natural forms and the possible ways of their transposition into structural surfaces, as well as the possible artificial imitation of their natural functions. I transferred the content of natural shapes to the artistic values ​​and characteristics of the surface and I defined the structure of textiles by their mutual relations. A further goal of the work is reflected in emphasizing the expressive possibilities of textiles, using structural characteristics that arise from the nature of the material I use. I have synthesized various art disciplines in the media and conceptual sense, which create new art forms from the unknown. The tactility of materials and their mutual communication encourage further research into new aesthetic and usable values. Individual creative freedom and the possibility of experimentation enabled me to create a unique art form.
