Athleta Performance / Technical Process
My Role: Create surface art and technical execution
Women’s Studio tight
Created by painting a watercolor with a nice edge, then digitally reworked into a diagonal stripe while working in texture
Placed into a nested pattern for powervita tight, making sure stripe wraps diagonally around and down leg, connecting front and back
Women’s Performance tight - Supernova Print
Inspired by ice dyed fabrics created by art team
Then, altered color and put into all over repeat so color and texture move around form naturally
Women’s Performance tight - Geode Print
engineered sublimated print
Inspired by the natural occuring striations in the centers of agate and geode rocks
Challenged to create seamless appearance of lines contouring the body, placed into nested pattern
