Deviante drawing salon: hellbounD

Immersive Figure Drawing Event

Explorers of the further regions of experience…

The producers of bi-monthly sensual visual tableau event DEVIANTE DRAWING SALON approached me to serve as guest curator to art direct their December 2019 theme: HELLBOUND.

I provided performance narrative and visual direction of characters, costume, and featured artists and installations.

Collaborated with artists of MAX STEINER DESIGN and LUST & LEATHER to create interactive wearable art pieces based off my concepts and illustrations.

Fabricated wearable art and interactive prop pieces.

Puzzlebox: Concept collaboration with MAX STEINER DESIGN. Fabricated by MAX STEINER DESIGN.

3D printed from scan of model’s head, masterfully crafted to slide open and shut in various positions. Painted with oxidized iron patina, as if a reliquary item and part of the darkly archaic and surreal atmosphere and story of HELLBOUND.
