Ethereal Lovers

Ethereal Lovers depicts intimacy, gender, nature, and tranquility within a relationship. This bond is shown through the materials used, the placement of patterns, and the flow from one person to the next, both rooted in the Earth. I used uncommon materials such as foam clay, gold leaf, and specific sewing techniques to advance my horizons. I also used techniques such as nerikomi, linocut printing, felting, and painting. I wanted to portray the feeling of finding peace, safety, and intimacy within a relationship in my modern twist on The Kiss by Gustav Klimt
