An exploration In collaboration with film maker Zakaria Garmsiri & sound artist Michele Vescio, imagining couture garments as inhabitable sculpture, culminating in the exhibition BRUTALIST - 11 INHABITABLE SCULPTURES, or A COUTURE LOVE LETTER IN CLOTH TO ALL THINGS STARK, IMPOSING AND CONCRETE - and shown for one night only at Besser Space, Melbourne, Australia.

In the following year, my collaborators and I were invited to reimagine their collaborative film work and create x3 short edits to be projected on the exterior of Hong Kong’s iconic high-rise buildings as part of a public art projection of various video works for the duration of the 2018 Hong Kong Business of Design Week.
