A leaf vein is a vascular bundle found in leaves. This vascular bundle serves as a transport system for nutrients and water, and provides mechanical support. This is a collection in which the structure and mechanism of, as well as circulation seen in the plants’ stem, roots and leaves are exemplified as fabric and clothing. Attention is focused on the selection of threads, weaving of fabric, sewing of clothing, and natural dyeing. Pieces are partially hand-embroidered to create netted veins of leaves using a tailored embroidery technique called pad stitching and irregular hand stitching.
