Alison Watt is a contemporary Scottish painter known for her realistic depictions of drapery and figures. She has explained about her work with the phrase that says : “The longer I look at drapery in painting, the more I seem to lose my connection with its original purpose, It begins to suggest other things to me and becomes a boundary between abstraction and figuration".

I saw her work since the time I spent at the college in Bangkok, Thailand. Her works did not strike me as clothing or draperies from the fabric, instead it gives out the vibe of organic from that has projected on human. To me, she completely shattered the boundaries between fabric and the body. Merging the two into one unity. Her work is what inspired me to dig deeper into the fold of human body in the first place. She changed the way of how I see things, fabric, draperies, and fold all relate back to the body of a living being.
