The Gala invite that got away
I feel like a fraud posting old work these days and I am not really sure why I am doing it. To remember who I am and what I did? How much fun I had at what I did? I thought I had a freelance illustration job but after a few of days of waiting, it did not come through. So the last couple of days I have stayed awake all night wondering what I ever did and whatever I did, was it worth it? A career I thought I had feels like a distant dream and I am wondering if I just picked or stuck with the wrong career path? Not only do I ever think I will have a full time graphic designer job again at my age, I am not really even sure I want it. I feel done. I have been trying to conjure up something fun and creative to do and nothing comes to mind. The last 30 years my brain has churned crazy, creative ideas so fast I could not write them down fast enough. And now it feels like a big black hole up there. I wanted to talk to David about it but with the craziness with the kids and his own work, I have really just kept it to myself.
This was one of my last projects. Two of us did a couple of ideas for 2019 Gala, this was one of mine that was rejected. I called it Perfect Persian. We named all of our prototypes silly names to keep up with them. This would have been a diecut, folded, all gold would have been gold foil.

Dominic Harris on the wing
Dominic Harris is an artist who uses technology to construct highly personal interpretations of the natural phenomena which surround us.
Explore his exhibit at the Halcyon Gallery, it is breathtaking. His reverence for nature, coupled with his fascination for code, offers a surreal and whimsical take on reality, which ultimately challenges our own perceptions of the world about us. His responses, aesthetic yet playful, conceal a carefully-observed commentary on the digitisation of our daily experiences, which plays both upon our emotions, and our relationship with the technology-fuelled 21st century Pop Culture.
