inside, outside and inbetween

I spend alot of time on the inside of things. Recently Carson posted about the architect Chris Bosse whose work seemed to her reminiscent of what it might look like to view freeform lace from the inside. This idea was extremely intriguing to me and also seemed right on. I’ve been thinking about it ever since, as I work away on the insides of garments and bags, all of which have form and structure and an interior that we never experience in a spatial way.
In the photographs here I’ve tried to capture that hidden interior, which is filled with texture and light and seems mysteriously inhabitable. I could live in this environment.

it is beautiful…your inside outside & inbetween…the secret life of your bags.

I love the inside of well made garments, It’s like you can touch the maker or something.

Beautiful photographs, and I agree completely with your sentiments regarding the insides - it’s like looking at the left over spaces, seeing the detail rather than the whole, and enjoying the process of what makes it real.

Beautiful images. I have been known to buy a piece of garment/handbag because I’ve fallen in love with the lining.
