Pattern Research Project: Emblems Of Colonialism - High Chest, Stephanie Wilburn
Pattern Research Project: Emblems Of Colonialism - High Chest, Stephanie Wilburn
Pattern Research Project
The Emblems of Colonialism project is a part of the broader Pattern Research Projects created by design history and design studio faculty members, Emily Smith and Dr. Sara Reed. Students in VCU Interior Design were asked to examine a pattern or motif used on a decorative object or surface during the colonial era in the Americas. During the 15th through 18th centuries, a period of colonialism forced new relationships between European countries and places in what is now known as North America, Central America, and the Caribbean. This project explores how colonial era patterns reveal power structures, othering, and the …
