WOVEN IN STONE – FROZEN IN TIME Exploring the space between memory and imagination,Woven in Stone – Frozen in Timeis a woven textile and fashion collection inspired by folklore, childhood memories, and sculptural drapery. Kristin Ferrell’s MA thesis project originates from a story Ferrell’s father once told her about a troll’s flute stone — a personal myth that became memory, anchoring her long-standing fascination with the blurred lines between the real and the imagined. At the heart of the collection is a dialogue between garment and fabric, each developed simultaneously, where the fabric becomes the memory and the garment becomes the reality — together, they tell a story. This interplay is realised through the merging of draping and woven textile development. Draping was used not only to form the shapes of the final garments but also to design and sculpt the textile prototypes themselves — guiding decisions on texture, weight, and structure. Drawing inspiration from mountains back home in Iceland and marble sculptures seen at the Louvre, the collection captures moments of transformation and stasis. Through the intertwined processes of draping and weaving, the collection became a conversation between movement and structure. Kristín Ferrell kristin.ferrell95@gmail.com +354 8642695
