kaleidoscope
Kaleidoscope is a portrait series that weaves together diverse styles to celebrate the richness of multiculturalism in Australia.
This work features an array of fabric elements from various cultures, paired with models from multicultural backgrounds, to showcase the beauty of global traditions.
Through this vibrant series, I aim to honour cultural heritage, highlight the diversity that defines us, and embrace the kaleidoscope of colours that unites humanity.
ORNAMENTAL
Driven by my love and respect for diverse cultures and their traditional attire, I created a photography series that blends traditional Chinese dress, such as Hanfu, with Miao accessories and Tibetan dress and vibrant colours. I incorporated intricate Chinese ornamental designs, typically seen on vases, onto the models' bodies, adding a unique artistic layer to the imagery.
The backdrop, with its oil painting texture, lends a vintage aesthetic to each composition.
This series honours Chinese craftsmanship and heritage, offering a visual celebration that elegantly bridges the old with the new, paying sophisticated homage to Chinese culture.
Anyone of culturally diverse backgrounds, disabilities, trans and LGBTQI+ are all welcome in my studio. This is a safe and creative space for all.
