In the 1600's the technology of damask in European countries grew. A fine linen damask is a delicate white on white textile with reversible patterns, meant to be a reusable table cloth reserved for the 'elegant'. Such as the royal, high nobles, and rich bourgeoisie. It could be made with multiple weave structures, linen embroidery, lace insertions etc. to create a variety of textures and shadows. Due to its reusable nature many of the damask from the sixteenth century were worn down resulting in few surviving today.

Even in these 'elegant' 'rich' household the women was still making the damask. It was not bought or manufactured. Women were always associated with textiles and have been disregarded by the male gaze. "Previously women didn't have a voice, but they had these skills. Today we have other ways to express ourselves, but skills are being lost; girls aren't being taught to sew and embroider anymore."

The use of light is inspired from invisibility with textile appreciation, the layers of the damask, and the white on white fragility. Using bio plastic to create patch work inspired by bojagi a korean textile that wraps goods. This reversible textile typically uses scraps of fabrics to patch together with an open seam to promote reusing and recycling the fabrics. Each square is said to be sewn with 'invisible' prayers of luck and good fortune. Similarly in Korea women were trained to be in the household and through textiles had a creative outlet and a community. Inspiring the use of narration and movement.
