墨尔本的一个晚上// A night in Melbourne [01/04]
Part 1 of a photo collection I did with @h4zeeel about her perspective as an Asian person navigating the city life in Melbourne and the people around it. Giving our fave simp king Wong Kar-Wai. We scoured the city looking for places that reminded us of the visual/fluorescent density of East Asia. Then, using them as a portal to transport us, for a moment, from the colony to the homeland.
It was freeing to shoot street again.
The incredible @loveratstudio made a music video for the opening track on my new album and it's actually so beautiful it makes me wanna cry. Link in bio to watch the whole thing.
'August and June' will be out everywhere this Friday. Please listen to it/come to the launch Oct 5th. Thanks to @babykaho1 for her collaboration on this track (it's mostly her if I'm gonna be honest) and @first_light_records for their help with the release.
In vintage LOVE RAT! fashion, here are some photos of a motel I stopped over at on the drive to Sydney. This whole motel felt like one entity that was alive, taking big slow breaths. Resting, in the middle of nowhere.
I think people can be put off by motels because they’ve got massive backrooms vibes and also murder. But I found this one oddly comforting that’s maybe because I’m a cretin.
Here’s a sneakity peekity at the NOWHERE m/v I shot for @canisha.ck ⚡️
It was just one of those productions where all the pieces fit together so seamlessly from vision to execution 😩✊🏽 This video was made to tie together a live performance with the song’s inner world. Brought to life through an improvised dance by @issy_fox who I had the pleasure of dancing in tandem with (camera in hand).
Massive talents on that set 🙏🏽

In all seriousness, all I’ve ever wanted to do since I started filmmaking was to bask in sonic performances. I’ve met so many people in these spaces that will be a part of my creative journeys forever. There is nothing like moving with a performer and capturing the exact moment they let go. It’s magic.
Grateful to be able to hold that space for y’all✨
Anyways, lets make some BOLD, GRUNGY & SEXY videos 🧨🧨🧨

HEADSHOTSDONTHAVETOBEBORINGPART2738
If you held a gun to my head I’ll take ur headshots in front of a paper roll backdrop BUT WHAT IF WE WENT OUTSIDE FOR DIEGETIC LIGHTING?? Taken in the Berlin underground. I was constantly mesmerised by how nice the lighting in European train stations were. Even when they were grotty.
If you want some sexy headshots hmu 🔫
One of a kind headshots in Melbourne ✨✨
