Having recently graduated from the Australian National University with a B.A. of Design Arts, Majoring in Gold and Silversmithing, I am now looking to undertake a manufacturing jewellery apprenticeship to further my skills within the industry. Below are some images of my work. If you would like to speak with me about anything at all my email is u4292191@anu.edu.au

Art Deco Exhibition at the NGV

u4292191 — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 00:56:50 +0000

This winter 2008, the National Gallery of Melbourne will be exhibiting a collection of works from the art deco period ranging from 1910-1939. The exhibition showcases a large array of art and design pieces including pantings, photography, fasion, furniture, film, architecture and…. jewellery. Works by design houses including names such as Cartier and Bulgary are on display to the public with incredible close access. On seeing the exhibition myself i was amazed to see infamous pieces that i have studied in books since i was young. The detail in craftsmanship and design was a beautiful reminder of why myself and others strive to keep the practice of Goldsmithing alive and desired in a world where mass production is so redly available. A beautiful experience.

Open 28 June to 5 October

Open daily 10am-5pm

Open til 9pm Wednesday

Admission fees apply

It has become incresingly apparent that the common choice of on-line meeting place, for those in the fashion industry, is MySpace! Young, fresh, new and old designers are creating strong industry links through the profile site, by linking, adding and blogging via designer’s profiles. Spaces such as Yen’s, Russh’s and Nylon’s, have hundreds of friends linked on thier pages with one thing in common, – An Absolute LOVE for all things FASHION DESIGN.

So for all of the ‘hungry -to-meet-new-people’ designers, fashion enthusiasts and funky-cola-vistas out there, here’s your chance. Jump on line and grab some friends, their only a click away!!!!

Canberra’s Orphan

u4292191 — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 05:05:04 +0000

Finally the Canberra fashion scene has been acknowledge, all thanks to brand spanking new Canberra Magazine, Orphan. Fantastically witty in it’s analytical commentary of Canberra fashion and culture, Orphan says what many of us have thought but have not yet to put to words. Its first issue, released earlier in the year, was a fresh break for coffee readers around the city. Opposed to the normal flick through BMA or City News, cafe dwellers are now able to galvanize thier minds with something a little snappier, a bit more rude and far more inetelletuclly stimulating. From an artistic perspective, the magazine is a treasure album of juicy images, fonts and lay-outs which are complemented even further by the content of thier article. Look out for Issue Zero and those to follow in cafes, bars, restaurants and funky stores all over town. Check out the link on this page…

Just a little footnote, the editor is deliciously attractive which makes reading this publication an even bigger fresh breath of Canberra air. Enjoy!
