A Liminal Wonderland.

A Liminal Wonderland is a zine created for

my final year university project. It focuses
on the significance of motorway service
stations during the 90s rave movement,
and how these paradoxal places became
an integral part of the weekend.
Talking Over Tea.

A collaborative project brief set by Hallmark cards,

asking us to ‘shift perceptions of the language and
material of printed greeting cards,’ by reinventing the
tradition of the folded paper message, ‘embracing the
language of wonky communication, leftover materials,
play and humour.’

We approached this by creating an interactive instil-

lation piece called ‘Talking over Tea’. The concept
behind this was to encourage people to have a con-
versation over a ‘cuppa’- with the intention of it being
slightly unusual, but simultaneously meaningful. To
help conversation flow, those who participated were
given ‘wonky question cards’, some deep and serious,
some rather questionable...

This was exhibited at HOME Cinema in Manchester

last year, where anyone who wished to could sit down
with a stranger, friend, parent etc, enjoy a cup of tea
and find out more about each other through our
unusal prompts. This generated real and authentic
responses and created some new friendships through
a fun alternative to the classic folded greeting card.
The Elysian Fields.

The Elysian Fields is a festival concept focused on

Greek Mythology, with the intention of providing a
sense of escapism for the atendee. This is achieved
by taking them to a dream-like utopian setting, with
different areas of the festival dedicated to each one
of the ancient Greek Gods and Goddess‘.

Trash to Table.

The ‘Trash to Table’ project is a campaign for universi-

ty students in Manchester to get involved in recycling
and cleaning up the city, in exchange for sustainably
sourced, healthy meal kits to help out with cooking
and the cost of living.

Postcards from New York.

On a study trip to New York City, I used

a 35mm film camera to capture the
city and develop my photography skills,
using a type of camera I had never used
in the past.
Sci-Fi Book Cover Design.

A project to redesign cohesive book covers for classic

Sci-Fi novels: Frankenstein, The Day of the Triffids, and
The Female Man.
Illustration prints.

A personal project of illustrated cards designed for friends and

family‘s birthdays.
The Yellow Ages.

An image-based zine narrating the role the colour yellow

plays in our lives as we grow up. Beginning with positivi-
ty and optimism in a child-like sense, the context shifts to
highlighting the negative associations the colour holds as
the zine progresses and we age.
