This work explores the contrast between protection and vulnerability. Under the name Double-Sided Structure, I created a costume and an object that a person can step into, offering a sense of security. Both the costume and object feature distinctive hoods, highlighting the contrast between softness and discomfort. Inside, the materials are soft and comfortable, while the outer surfaces are sharp and uninviting. The object combines soft white cotton with perforated metal mesh, and the costume uses the same cotton alongside plastic netting.
