Sovereign Core

Project type

Soft Sculpture

Date

November, 9, 2023

Size

42" x 17" x 11"

Materials

red sheer fabric, fairy lights, thread

Sovereign Core is an abstract piece representing a heart, created as a soft sculpture project in response to a prompt to make an object of power. Constructed from sheer red fabric, the pieces were bunched and sewn together, with fairy lights embedded inside to create a rhythmic, “beating” glow. The piece reflects the strength and resilience of the human heart, both as a physical organ and as a symbol of emotion and connection. This project allowed me to explore fabric manipulation, volumetric form, and the interplay of light and texture, while translating emotion and symbolism into a tactile, immersive artwork. It deepened my understanding of soft sculpture techniques and the expressive potential of materials in conveying presence and energy.
