(SET IN A PERIOD OF TIME
 WHERE BLOGGER IS NOT A PRIORITY)
NAKED FASHION.
Im reading a book called 'Naked Fashion' its by the founder of 'People Tree', Safia Minney, and is a vast collection of images/text/factual information about sustainable fashion. Its a huge closet of inspiration for me, and its been ruling 40% of my brain ever since i got it. 



Not the clearest pictures, but i wanted you to see what a beautiful book it is, content and layout. 

DEATH OF A SPY FLY.
The second thing i've been working on this week, is a project for my Art Foundation Course.
We got asked to create a site-specific installation based o the theme 'LEAVE NO TRACE'.
We spent time getting to know the building, discovering what caught our minds. And i came across a..
dead fly
And this dead fly, was the most interesting thing that i could find. So i rolled with it. 
And this is what i came up with...



I don't want to reveal all, but the idea i went with is that, 
'What if all the flies are machines working for the government tracking our every move'
And as you can see above, the video and soundtrack formed my final piece.
The most exciting bit about it for me, was where i got to project it.. The deserted stairwell where i found the fly, on this epic curved wall, the picture bellow kinda shows the scale, looking up at it..


So, this week concluded with me going to London, part school trip, part nanny's birthday, part see beautiful suzy!!
