i find it hard posting my art — i tell myself it has to be a show stopper and rarely is that the case. but im challenging myself to just do it any way and talk about it. exposure therapy if you will. so :
1. a task suggested by my therapist to "sketch your calm"
2. how i visualise meridian flow
3. martini sketch as part of a cocktail menu design concept
4. i had just read metamorphosis by Kafka….
5. same as 3.
6. i discovered the Devil’s Flower Mantis
7. same as 3 and 5
sharing creativity doesnt have to be the best thing ever to be worthy of being seen. (but also like, tell me im good) … HEHE
yes the rumours are true, i got naked in public ——
✢ NAKED TRUTH ✢ made her PUBLIC debut at @publicmcr (wink wink) — A huuuge thank you and happy 1st birthday to the wonderful and talented team at @polyphonic.mp3 !!!! 🎈⭐️ (slides 1 and 4 taken by @polyphonic.mp3 📸 ✦)

Slides 1-3 taken by angel @konstantinamav__
From the floating mannequins down to the finger painted dots, this 11x14ft wall and window space has been entirely hand painted and decorated by me •ᴗ•
The idea behind ‘Born Slinky’ was portals, tears in space and alternate dimensions ~~~
The name itself is inspired by the ICONIc song, Born Slippy, which famously features in Trainspotting (which we all know to cover a particular substance that takes you on a similar sort of reality shifting journey,, if you know what i mean)
anyways i am soo grateful for all the lovely responses to this, to @blue.rinse.manchester for giving me free reign and trusting the vision and finally to @konstantinamav__ for taking such beautiful photos 🌟🌀🌟
Did it hurt when you crawled out of the fifth dimension?
@catleesh opened up a portal inside our shop and things are starting to get a lil weird…
🌀✴️🧩🧲❇️🗯️🎲♦️🍭🪀🎯
Our latest spine-tingling window display, “Born Slinky”, has been designed and curated by Aleesha, who has taken inspiration from our graphic ornamental knitwear and colour-block statement pieces to get us in the Halloween spirit 👻
Using her signature style of swirls, whirls, spikes and curls, Aleesha has portrayed a series of spooky portals and all-consuming wormholes to capture the feeling of being chewed up, swallowed and spat back out by time and space. Pretty gnarly right?
Come have a look at it for yourself at our shop on Oldham St. Who knows where you’ll end up… maybe shopping inside?
