London Design Week- Chelsea Harbour

Walking the Pink Carpet at LDN Design Week 2014

I was invited to the Trade Preview of London Design Week where some of the most inspiring interior design companies exhibit and showcase their latest collections, along with industry presentations talking of whats on trend for the up coming seasons.

The event reflects the dynamism, ingenuity and genuine passion for design today (including lots of British Class) and has plenty to offer whether you are a fan of classic contemporary, an admirer of cutting-edge cool or just keen to seek out something innovative or unusual.

It was such a great opportunity to make some new contacts within the interiors market and not to mention how inspiring it was...

MIRRORED - Collaborative Exhibition

Above : Flyer for Exhibition, half Matt half Holly.

A Collaborative exhibition exploring the bridge between Photography and Textiles. 

I worked with my friend and Photography student Holly Aitchison to create a series of photographs and projections which explore the boundaries between textiles and photography.

We worked with Textiles Prints and photographic research I used in projects previously along with Holly's photographic and digital media skills to make a combined set of projections.

These projections then were projected onto each others torso and face, allowing the projection to interact and be manipulated by our positions and angle.

Some of the projections really allowed myself to visualise in another manor how my prints could interact with the human form.

These were then photographed in the photo studio in high quality, adjusted by ourselves then we shortlisted with photos we would use in the exhibition. After much thought and consideration the photographs were then printed digitally to the size of A1 (roughly the size of 8 A4 pages combined).

The preparation of an exhibition was greatly underestimated by myself however it was certainly worth the work.
