The organic texture of the costumes was created using hand-painted leather and printed silk crépon, while 1970s clothing references have shaped some of the silhouettes. (And note the somewhat surprising retro-reference to the sea monsters from the BBC's long-running TV series Doctor Who.)

Hamilton was inspired by the work of early 20th-century French writer and dramatist Antonin Artaud and his call for the "physical knowledge of images". With The Squash, she hopes to examine the concept of a bodily response to an idea or an image.
