Some exciting press! Zink Magazine, Tanget, Cultures in Between and On the Streets of Sydney...




It's not everyday your grad work gains the attention of the media, a big thank you to Heather, Mike and Hayley for your support Xx







My coat (top) was featured in an editorial Techno Dreams for Zink Magazine (based in New York)



Cultures in Between did an extensive interview with myself and two other graduates which you can read on their website.






The team at On the Streets of Sydney organised an editorial shoot of some graduate work as well as a write up of our end of year show.



And my coat appeared again in Tangent Magazine as part of their Rough Gem editorial.
Phew!

Sneak Peak... Body Bound Collaborative Project


Here is a sneak peak of my latest project, my first attempt at working with resin. I have spent the last week slaving away at sculpting, molding and casting, contracting a resin rash and sending myself broke at Barnes. This is their instructional video which let my imagination run wild, in hindsight this was a terribly ambitious project for my first attempt at working with a new material, but it was an incredibly fun process and i learnt a lot very quickly.


I will post more on this project in the weeks to come as the final video is closer to realisation. Enjoy!
