Culture & Context

“Threading the Mind” is a design concept that came to mind as I was exploring the theme of controlled disorder.

The idea behind the concept is that when someone is sewing, they control the direction of the stitch, but sometimes without noticing, the machine skips a stitch or forms knots within the stitches.

I wanted to explore this concept through screen design, which led to the creation of “Threading the Mind”.
