COLOUR AND CULTURE X ALEX NOBLE MONOLITHS

I was commissioned to create four pieces commemorating the moment four different icons wore a make up product from the boutique brand Cosmetics A La Carte - the pieces were for an exhibition curated by Ryan Lanji to celebrate the fourty year anniversairy of the brand.
The collection is titled Monoliths and the subjects are -

KATE MOSS

GRACE JONES

LADY GAGA

LADY DIANA

Plinths designed by Anna Lomax

FLOWERS FOR SELFRIDGES

The team at selfridges commissioned me to adorn 40 garden gnomes in florals and tattoo blooms onto mannequins for their Chelsea Flower show inspired window.

REVLON 'ENAMOURED' EXHIBITION

Ryan Lanji, curator of the Revlon ENAMOURED exhibition asked me to create a piece of work that represented the concept of matching Lipstick and nail varnish. Revlon were the first cosmetics brand to do this with their product - and the result being my piece of work - 'LIPS AND TIPS'.
The mannequin heads rotated and picked up the spot lights reflecting from the make up compacts in the surrounding hands.

I was asked to design a surreal cafeteria for a BEVIACOM event that showcaed its channels, MTV, COMEDY CENTRAL and NICKELODEAN. I designed a mural that made it seem as though the whole cafe was being sucked into a psychadelic void.
I created for Mannequink sculptures for the piece, designed the signs, table tops and food counters.

LOVEBOX DESIGN FOR DALSTON SUPERSTORE

I was asked to design the Dalston Superstore Disco tent with artist and friend Anna bruder. Anna took on the inside and I designed an anachronistic temple entrance with looming Totem poll towers, adorned with psychadelic patterns and cat headed gods, drawing on heiroglyphics, Aztec and Navaho imagery as inspiration.
I designed painted mannequins with ribbon streamer arms to mount the top of the totems for extra height, drama and funk - and I always love a mannequin.
