Confetti and more pinatas.

Here are some stills from a project developed alongside Bernadette Francis and Sarah Barrow. Filmed by Hana Davies and Lizzie Hollins this will become a short film edited by Tim White.

EXPLOSION

Pretty excited about a new collaborative project with one very talented Melbourne fashion designer. It will feature some kind of exploding dress.

Talk Talk Talk

We spoke at a Pecha Kucha night at ACCA as part of the opening night of the State of Design Festival. It was kind of nerve racking... There were 100's of people there! Eeep.
We spoke about audience participation and collaborating with the wider public in relation to the pinata project and the coloured fringe on the grey landscape.
Photos to come soon!
And here is a link to Pecha Kucha....

It's a cool idea where each speaker shows 20 images and each image is shown for 20 seconds. It was actually quite fun once we started.
Aye aye aye!
Hasta Luego!

Fringe-tastic

Sarah and myself are currently working on some ideas that feature the grey sky of Melbourne winter and colourful fringing in public spaces. We are exploring celebration once again and also the idea of putting ourselves in situations that can be a little painful but ultimately rewarding. We are fringing public space in the middle of a cold winters day our fingers numb and getting rained on just to make you smile and get you out of the winter rut! And also to make us smile and make sure we don't get into that horrible winter depression! Yuck!






I'm still a little unsure of where this project is heading.... Maybe a large scale fringing of a building somewhere in the Collingwood/Fitzroy area... Maybe...

Now on video!

A guy called Richard Kendall made this video. Let's smash more pinatas!!!
