I was on the direction team for our second year fashion show 'Curiously Curious'. My role was creative direction and set design. Loosely based on the Mad Hatter's tea party in Alice in Wonderland, this show was an exhibition of the second year Fashion Design students garments at Manchester School of Art.

A project exploring British youth culture, taking photographs with pinhole camera's that I hand made from items I found on nights out in Manchester. I thought it would be a nice idea to create new memories with old memories. I spent a lot of time in the darkroom for this project, making different lenses for my pinhole camera from a variety of objects and testing for hours. The results were mostly obsqure, perfectly embodying the alcahol induced haze these objects were abandoned in. The styling was inspired by interesting charaters I saw around Manchester, created with mundane objects. The final images are displayed next to the object they were shot with. Directed, styled & shot by me.

BEDROOM LANDING
This shoot is called 'Bedroom Landing', based on a dream I had about sunbathing on Mars, and 1950’s low budget sci-fi movies. I wanted the set to feel really handmade but still tasteful, so pitched my idea to some graphic designer friends Imi and Will who came up with the amazing idea for the set: Minecraft mars, which they did by screen printing computer generated rock images onto cardboard boxes. I directed my sunburnt models to pretend they were really bad actors on a super low budget film, so it was all really collaborative and so fun to shoot. A lot of my dreams have film like qualities and I feel as though I am watching them rather than taking part in them, so initially it was only supposed to be a short fashion film shot on Super8 – the photos were actually just a side product! Shot, styled, directed & edited by me.
