talking window displays, I visited one of my favourite stores the other day to glimpse the latest inspiration from Akira Isogawa store in Melbourne GPO window...I had seen this red dress there a few months back, very similar to the one in the middle, all hand embroidered down the front. Stunning!... some work of his, is on display at the NGV at fed sqr too at the moment... i just love all the texture and fabrics... always good to go to one of his sales to pick up fabric sample remenants too... :)

well fortune would have it, that if you partner yourself with like-mindedness things apparently fall into place. I happened upon this store, a funky clothing store in the centre of melbourne none-the-less, which happened to sell toy cameras. I just happened to be having an exhibition of toy camera photographs, so I got talking to the staff and one thing led to another, and so after the exhibition I ended up putting my images in their window as a cross poromotional thing. For me to get exposure for my work, them to help sell their toy cameras, by having examples of what the cameras can do in a stylish manner that suited their store.
