Series of images shot back in September last year for the Dunhill menswear label...
From magicians and painters to crocodile tamers and snake charmers... I sourced and styled the animals and props to illustrate imaginary owners of these Dunhill bags
I was creative director for "The Tasting Sessions" A fluid State festival. Working with different beverage brands on creating different worlds from Fantasy Island (-rum crisps, sweet pork candyfloss and dragon breathe popcorn) to the Secret dinner/wall of hoods (masonic game stew and finest chocolate) to a tequila inspired Texan prison and 1960s jazz club...
A little halloween special for Milk Magazine alongside photographer Sandra Freij and stylist Emma Macfarlane. I styled props and created body/head pieces for this shoot
Shoot for Octobers Issue creating dens in the picturesque Walthamstow Forests. I worked alongside fellow set designer Hela Dondertman, Photographers Brendan and Brendan, and stylist Kirsty Hathaway
I was the creative director for this event held by "The Tasting Sessions" in The Brunswick Gallery, Russell Square. Champagne was served and tasted at event so was therefor the basis of the concept for the evening. Starting in a restrained manner (akin to a cork in a champagne cage) a performance piece curated by Artist Marnie Hollande "En Pointe" took place, latex wear was adorned by the all performers by William Garner. The theme of restraint continued in the cryptic world of masonic symbolism.. Cloaks were adorned..the crowd wore masks.. the lighting was dark...a crow wandered. The night was hosted my Marcella Puppini..she evoked the reveal with doves and introduced the beautiful Beaux Belles dancing seductively to "Bathing Blossom" from the soundtrack to film "The Secretary". The evening ended in neon bubbles and tipsiness. I curated sets/costumes and casting. Sound curation and artist liaison by Leslie Deere.
I was recently invited by Jellymongers Bompass and Parr to Art Direct and Co-ordinate their latest venture "The Complete History of Food". I commissioned the lovely ladies from Lighting and Kinglyface and Jiggery pokery to transform various room into periods of time. It was a walk through experience where diners ate and drank their way through time . Each room was hosted one of Londons top chefs from the guys at Bistroteque to Saf. Footprint scenery built a medieval Ship and flooded the basement of the Belgravia house to give a home to the eels of course!
just finished directing my first video for daveid www.myspace.com/daveidspace...We have dancers, lights, flare, sparks, star cross, rainbows...you name it we shot it
Photographer Jimmy Mould shot Malaya bespoke Jewelery which featured my mirror halo headpiece. I really love working with mirror and have now learnt how to cut it myself! although most photographers find it a complete nightmare!
I worked with Peter Pilotto and partner Christopher De Vos on the creation of this tree for Libertys department store for London Fashion Week. The leaves were painstakingly time consuming and made with the same silk used in the dress also featured in the window.
