Heather Barett Wallpaper


As I have just began a short brief involving wallpaper I thought it would be appropriate to look at some wallpaper designs that link in with my personal passions brief to try and build a connection between them. I came across the designs of Heather Barett in a wallpaper book I was browsing in and I thought her designs looked similar to my experiments with ink.  Although its inspired from something completely different I can see a psychedelic theme in her work as she has used symmetry and mirror effects to create images that look a little like kaleidoscope patterns. She uses microscopic images to create digital wallpaper prints that I think are incredibly unique and have developed from a very original idea as she has taken something that comes from the 'science world' seen something creative in it and transformed it into beautiful prints for the 'design world'. She has looked deeper into something that isn't usually used in art and because of this I find her work very inspiring and will begin to try and look around me more to see if I can look deeper into things that I usually wouldn't.
