I am currently on a journey, both literally and creatively. For all of those who don't already know, I am a 3rd year design student from Ryerson University (Toronto) on exchange for a semester in Melbourne, Australia. While I've only officially been in Melbourne for a little over 2 weeks, I've been in Australia for a month and a half and am loving every minute of it. However that portion of my journey involving hostels, kangaroos, surfing and goon is not the one that I choose to focus on in this blog, but rather the one that begins with my first class at RMIT, STRETCHWEAR GENERICS (there is nothing generic about this class!)
The most valuable part of attending RMIT is the ability to take courses with subject matter that is not available at my home institution and the opportunity to learn in ways that vary from what I am used to. I chose to focus most of my time on the stretchwear studio with Ricarda Bigolin and Feride Peel for this reason... and to say that I am pumped about the course is an understatement. (In fact, I was so keen that I showed up a day early... oops). The course is experimental, explorative and conceptual in nature - dramatically differing from the technical nature of Ryerson's curriculum.
Here's my class schedule:
