fiberform is a moulding process for creating clothing
from {liquid}. From the outset,the intention of this experiment was
to determine a method of moulding garments, the result is a fresh way to achieve shapes and effects not possible with conventional construction methods. Any shape formed with the right base measurements and surface finish can become a weightless, vibrant wearable form. It bypasses traditional weaving and construct- ion, substituting these for industrial carving, vacuum forming and heat setting. Fibres are bonded in a plastic mould using a dilute adhesive so- lution, making a strong, customizable non-woven mat.
{SWEET SUSPENSION), the first set of garments produced using this method, are 5 hollow, three-dimensional structures ‘welded’ together wit- hout a single stitch. Their aesthetic is derived from implications and associati- ons of the method. Each garment captures a sweet collapse, frozen movement and change inspired by classical sculpture and liquid itself. Exaggerated bright fo- rms, dimensional florals, fruit scents & intertwined, sinister lizards teeter on a d-
elicate line separatingsickly&sweet. As a new method FIBERFORM still poses more questions than it answers,
& further development is needed, particularly replacing or altering the latex component to a more sustainable adhesive, reducing crushing and reducing waste made during carving and mould release. Never intending to ‘replace’, FIBERFORM incites thought, creating & illuminating new possibilities. The bold result has exceeded expectation
