SECOND SKIN - SOLO EXHIBITION
Maverick Hair + Art Space, Coolangatta
This is a collection of hand painted jackets and supporting artwork that I created for my solo exhibition at Maverick on the Gold Coast. The premise of this body of work was about how we use clothing to either accentuate or hide our personalities.

BOLD BRIGHT BRAZEN
This jacket was inspired by Camille Walala and SuperMundane. I love strong bold colours. This jacket communicates a strong bold and colourful personality who isn't afraid to express themselves.
MODEL: Bonnie Stevens
PHOTOGRAPHER: Rachael Anger
ORGANIC MATTER
Totally free form organic patterns that relate to those personalities that go with the flow and let life take them on a journey.
LAVA LAMP
Free form patterns with gold accents. This jacket talks about bright and bubbly personalities that are friendly and warm.
MODEL: Claudia Piggott

LOVE KILLS
A slightly morbid take on how even though loneliness can be isolating and tiresome, heartbreak can affect one seriously and sometimes beyond repair.

ADAPT OR PERISH
Being opinionated and head strong in your views can be abrasive but also set you a part from the crowd.

These are a collection of supporting artwork that related to the jackets but also extended the collection to a more 2D medium.
