Skinned Potential #NoctisEditorial

“This collection is an automotive expression of emotion, using surrealism and sculpted fish leather to harness creativity. Concepts explored: freedom, love, delusion, beauty of the random and the limitless boundary of the brain. I work with local fishmongers such as Moxons Fresh Fish; collecting their waste fish skins to turn into leather (and sequins from the scales) before draping them into wearable sculptures. 

The aim of my practise is to work cross disciplinary, using a waste management system to satisfy the constant demand in fashion. Although most of the collection is my own fish leather, the brightly coloured look is made in collaboration with INVERSA Leathers, using their Invasive Lionfish Leather to create gloves and a skirt. Each Invasive Lionfish hide helps protect up to 70,000 native reef fish in the Gulf of Mexico, evidencing how fashion can create a positive impact for our ecosystems.”
