Another Unsuitable Replacement
My work ‘Another Unsuitable Replacement’ was shown as part of Le Plastique, a proud participant in the PayPal Melbourne Fashion Festival’s Independent Programme 2024. Shown at Ladro, Melbourne.
Peppermint Magazine 60th Edition
It’s an absolute delight to be included in the 60th edition of Peppermint Magazine, on shelves now.
The piece profiles my work as a surface pattern designer, focusing on the learning I’ve gained through my PhD research, exploring response to place. All work shown is available now through Spoonflower.
Thank you Peppermint and Spoonflower for your support.
As seen on Gardening Australia
Tonight I was overjoyed to watch Gardening Australia celebrate the work of Dr Sue Davis OAM.
It was incredible to share the practice of wildflowering with Sue and the work of Kathleen McArthur.
The episode is now available on iView and the Gardening Australia website.
Thank you Gardening Australia and ABC TV.
Welcome Pattern Pulse 2
Pattern Pulse 2 by Rachael King is launching soon. The publication promotes the work of 100 talented Australian surface designers; it is the follow up to Pattern Pulse 1, that I was proud to be featured in.
This time around I was honoured with the task of writing the foreword; It tells the story of first meeting Rachael as a newly graduated designer who was ready to take on the word of surface pattern design.
Torrens University Presentation
On Monday 5 September I presented the workshop “Enhancing online delivery of studio-based subjects” at the Torrens University Learning and Teaching Symposium.
The workshop shared my approaches to engage the senses when writing the surface patterning subject Digital Print Design and how this can be used to enhance learning outcomes through online delivery. Including this great video we made touring through Applik Digital Printing with the fabulous Rameez! (Thanks Rameez)
Sharing my teaching practice with my fellow teaching staff was an absolute privilege, that I look forward to doing more of in the future.
