As part of my recent involvement in the It Was On Earth That I Knew Joy exhibition at the Scion Installation L.A. I was also asked to design a poster to promote the film directed by Jean-Baptiste de Laubier of the same name. The poster was printed by the master screenprinter, Serge of Lowrider who not only did the most amazing job I’ve ever seen but was one of the nicest guys I’ve ever met.
You can now buy this 70×100cm screenprinted poster from Sixpack online.

I was asked to create an image for the cover of Japanese creative magazine Brain, their theme was the colour purple. I chose to explore this by illustrating the myth of Heracles’ dog discovering the dye properties of the Murex sea snail.

What I Think About When I Think About Dancing
Categories: Art Direction, Design
I recently designed this 216 page book to accompany the Campbelltown Arts Centre exhibition, What I Think About When I Think About Dancing. The design accomodated roughly 40 written essays and almost as many visual responses to the theme of the show and the brief was to reflect that diversity. The publication is designed around a complicated mixture of black & white printing on an uncoated stock and a large number of inserted sections printed in colour on a coated stock of smaller dimensions. This design helps break up the content as both a reflection of the theme of the project and also as a way to assist in navigation through the book.
Included in the project were an A2 invitation poster and exhibition signage. I can’t thank the brilliant printer, Peachy Print, enough for their amazing diligence and outstanding quality of workmanship on this job.

Big Mouth Project

Cliffnotes
The Big Mouth Project by the Victoria WorkCover Authority aims to highlight the problem of injury in the workplace amongst the most affected age group, 15-24 year old males. I was invited by Lifelounge to produce something that would be noticed by this audience. I designed a series of street posters, a tshirt, sticker packs as well as this zine in which I produced an abstracted illustrated alphabet that stated the key message of the project - “Speak Up. Be Work Safe.”
