Coral bleaching is where the coral reef is dying, transitioning to bleached white. She has pressed this through beauty and decay and the power of colour. Using bright pinks to represent healthy coral which gradually changes too white.
Chloe has used different textures to represent this, using pleated silk organza to create the healthy coral. Transitioning into lighter pink, she used delicate stitches including experimental gold work and raised work. To show the dead, brittle coral she used white work and raised-work. Chloe had also demonstrated the drastic increase of the jellyfish population by developing her own homemade bioplastic from potato starch to create a leather like material to eradicate the use of plastic within her piece. This innovative material covers her embroidery to create the jelly texture of the jellyfish. She also uses reprised materials from beaches in their hometown. Consisting of firing nets, rope and sea glass which are used in a luxurious context.
