Circling Thoughts

We are living in an age of anxiety. Mental health prevalence is spiking at an unprecedented rate — but so is our society’s collective recognition and awareness.

Circling Thoughts is my contribution to this awareness. An exploration of the inner monologue of anxiety (and psychopathology more broadly), this work aims to capture feelings of spiralling rumination and the unending reprise of negative thoughts.

These ideas are represented in a final design of one-piece pattern trousers, a garment in which form takes place via repeated folds.
