There were so many lovely pieces there that I wish I could have bought most of the exhibition.
Reverse Garbage did a lovely job with presenting the cards and a few of my other items were scattered randomly around.
Here are some photos of the set-up from the night:
A lot of the work at the exhibition was mixed in with other people's so just to clarify; all of the cards are mine as are the six pouches. I seem to have lost the photos I took of the pouches before I submitted them but as you can see there is a grey denim and orange cord pouch with a white metal zip and orange floss. A second blue stripy and blue upholstery pouch with a beige faux suede star and a nylon zip. A non-descript new fabric I'm trying out with a burgundy upholstery back and a nylon zip. And finally a new design for a mp3 player/smart phone case in purple and green with green buttons a calico lining and a nylon zip, including a hole for your headphones.
I found my notebook amongst a selection of blue works.
And my little faux suede and faux velvet starfish was just chilling with the brown and beige creations.
For those of you who have made it to the exhibition and noticed that the prices seem a little over the top, please be aware that Reverse Garbage is a non-profit incentive from Friends of the Earth Brisbane and that they do put a mark-up on the pieces available in the Reverse Emporium. Money made from the sales goes back into supporting Friends of the Earth.
The exhibition runs until the 22nd September and after then I will be collecting any unsold items and they will be available through my website and at various up-coming markets.
If you're in Brisbane I suggest that you do go down and check out the rest of the fantastic work in the Reverse Emporium. Most of the work will be there until the 22nd September and the next exhibition is coming up in November.
