Viola Cryana

Through analysing the history of the Viola Cryana and its dissapearence by human intervention, I created a costume that evokes the shape and the movement of this flower.
The costume and the movement act as a revival of the flower, animating with petal-like pieces. By this movement, the user embodies the flower.
I used cellulose based fibers to structurate the piece, then dyed it with indigo and campeche logwood, as an alchemistic process to revive the extinct flower.
