Inspiration for This Work

The ZeroSeven Puzzle Pack is the catalyst for an event that was to be held on 07/07/07. This was a significant date for the Make Poverty History campaign as it marked the halfway point for the realisation of the Millennium Development Goals.

The form for the packaging came about through experimentation with the shape of the puzzle piece. The smooth edges, the tactility of cardboard and the unusual shape should insight curiosity in the receiver of the package. They should want to read it- and when they do, intrigue and the highlighted facts about poverty should move them to action.

Student Biography

I grew up in Perth, Western Australia, and knew from an early age that I wanted to put my vivid imagination to good use. I attended an art high school where we would go to school for 6 days a week- on the sixth day we would take classes of our choice with skilled practitioners in the field. My favourite classes were always life drawing, sculpture and painting. For our final year art exams, one of our subjects was "Modern Design" and I was completely seduced by all the beautiful, crisp design books. From then on I was hooked...

Since coming to COFA I have been able to indulge my love of fine art while developing my skills as a designer. For me, the distinction between these two fields is completely fluid. I was recently told that although I may work as a designer, I think like an artist. I am drawn to the poetic, meaningful and exploratory nature of design and hope to pursue this in my future work.
