Billboard in Sydney with one of my designs 'The Common Thread'

I was commissioned to create four original designs for the new Coopers Forever Original campaign, which saw the artworks span across billboards in Sydney, Adelaide and Brisbane and featured across tv, cinema and socials.

​

​In an unexpected connection between traditional techniques and digital design, I created four artworks using my textile work to create new artworks that could be used as vertical or horizontal orientations across digital platforms, and at an increased scale.

​

​Commissioned by Glue Society.

MAGGIE BEER'S BIG MISSION KEY ART

ABC commissioned me to create a bespoke artwork for a new TV series with Australian food icon Maggie Beer called Maggie’s Big Mission. The artwork is to be used as the background key art across the marketing and promotional material for the show in a variety of different specs and orientations.

 

The Brief: Create an artwork using fruits, vegetables, herbs and other food-related items in a design that can allow for a variety of different applications, sizes and orientations across print, TV and social media. The artwork is to be bright and colourful with lots of dimension and texture. Initially designing the elements digitally, I then painted the fabric before hand stitching and beading. This was then digitised to be implemented across all media for the show. Watch the making-of video below!

BARNARDOS FEARLESSLY OPTIMISTIC ART AUCTION

Original artwork donation for an art auction to raise money for the Australian charity Barnardos. My original artwork was also used across the show's promotional and advertising collateral.

​

Artwork artists statement:

For centuries looking up to the stars has been used as a method to predict, navigate, understand and explain the past, future and forces of nature across many different cultures. The parallel similarities of a shared curiosity and appreciation of the stars serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness between people that transcends cultural boundaries and fosters a sense of unity - a common thread connecting us all.

​

Ask anyone to draw a star and they will draw it differently. When Barnardos approached me to take part in a charity auction, I was inspired to collaborate with some of the children that Barnardos support. 

​

To me, the theme Fearlessly Optimistic is to have strength, resilience and positivity whilst still being true to yourself. Stars are often depicted in my work and I am drawn to them due to their universal connection and representation of life, strength and hope. 

​

Each child was asked to draw me a star and the stars came back in all shapes and sizes, they could be round or pointy, filled with patterns or even dotted with finger tips - each one as unique as the stars in the sky itself, and each one of us below them.
