Greta Oto

2019


Greta Oto is a production-ready dress which explores the microscopic play of light and colour that occurs in the vein patterns of butterfly wings. Printing directly onto polyester fabric, uses a lenticular effect to explore light refraction and shifting shades within the design. By printing spherical, fish scale-sized cells onto the fabric, a clear lens is formed with two underlying strips of colour. This allows the hues of the dress to shift with the smallest angle change, creating an iridescent and mesmerising display of golden-blue colour transitions.
