A STUDY OF PERCEPTION

'A Study of Perception' is a collection based on the principle that everything is relative. Heaviness and lightness can not exist without the other. In the development process of this collection, I explored many ways of creating heaviness out of lightness and vice versa. The end result is an interesting visual deception that is both light and heavy, complex yet minimal. Big thanks to the talented team that pushed through on a very cold, rainy and windy day.

MAPPING DIASPORAS

Starting off with some previous work from 2010. Mapping Diasporas Studio was lead by Dr. Peter Allan, studying and discovering the rich tailoring traditions that migrated from Europe to Melbourne in the last century. This is the experimental tailored jacket I developed in the Studio, inspired by traditional tailoring in contrast with the conceptual shapes inspired by old maps. At the photo shoot I had the luck to work with the wonderful Boseley sisters: Emma the model and Brooke the make-up artist. Here is the shot! :)
