This work extends my ongoing exploration of relational structures through the lens of aging and accumulation. While earlier works focused on interconnected units, this project considers how time gradually transforms those relationships.
The knitted forms were exposed to oxidized materials, allowing rust traces to emerge through contact rather than direct application. Alongside these traces, I incorporated fibers and yarns whose colours evoke rust and oxidation, extending these qualities into the structure itself.
What interests me is the idea that aging is not a process of deterioration but one of continuous formation. Rust records interactions between material, environment, and time, while the textile surface becomes a site where these relationships remain visible.
Rather than reproducing the image of rust, this work explores how time settles into material and becomes embedded within form through accumulation, contact, and duration.
