ALT: GAMES: “I’M STAYING HERE”
Artwork and keynote address
ALT: GAMES is a new festival that brings together the Australian games community and industry. Featuring digital showcases, sessions with industry leaders and a large-scale interactive game installation. A Powerhouse initiative, presented in partnership with City of Parramatta, Screen Australia and Screen New South Wales.
“I’M STAYING HERE” is an artwork I created for the keynote address of the festival. The work explores the humanity that is imbued into video games by the developers who make them, and how that humanity can guide the way for future development through uncertain and perilous times.
BACCHANALIA
Bacchanalia candle collaboration with Wyspworks
Wyspworks is an artisan candle company based in the Blue Mountains of NSW.
The BACCHANALIA candle combines alluring notes of rosemary, blood plum and juniper. This unique blend of herbal and gourmand accords come together to create an impression of partying with reckless abandon, seduction and lustful temptation, everything that Bacchanalia represents.
The Bacchanalia illustrations are part of the Sungirl Universe, a collection of pieces set inside a world of celestial beings, endless partying, and glittering outfits.
I worked alongside Wyspworks to design every aspect of this bespoke candle, including its scent, glassware and packaging, as well as the hero illustration and lettering.
SUNGIRL FEAST OF TERMINALIA
SUNGIRL FEAST OF TERMINALIA is a collection of works in the SUNGIRL UNIVERSE.
Celestial creatures gather to celebrate Terminalia, an ancient Roman festival in honour of the god Terminus, who presided over boundaries.
Sungirl beings - moons, stars, planets, demons, weather systems - adorn themselves in party attire and manically celebrate breaching the boundary between one reality and the next.
The mess of the feast, displayed through distorted figures, smeared makeup, spilled drinks, sloppy plates and rotten leftovers, is a reminder of the beauty and heartache of saying goodbye.
