INVITE-FINAL

Over the last few months, I have been thinking a great deal about weddings and the traditions that surround them.  I have photographed weddings from all over the cultural spectrum, ranging from the conventional to the more adventurous.  During the process I began to think about the often strange traditions which have become integral to the wedding process and in doing so, gradually invented some traditions of my own.  I started to imagine a culture in which it is customary for a couple to braid their hair together on their wedding day - literally binding themselves together.

The exhibition is essentially a photographic story set in the late 1960's, capturing an ordinary weekend lived by a couple in their early 50's.  Although they are physically bound together, over the years they have become emotionally dislocated.  The series aims to capture this disconnect, often using the braid itself as the dividing line between the husband and wife.

YARN BOMBING AT BELLEVUE CAMPUS

In an effort to assist the Hillcrest Aids Centre in their fundraising and in creating a festive atmosphere we have decided to yarn bomb two of the trees on our campus. Yarn bombing is not as one would image, bombing trees with balls of yarn, but rather covering the tree with knitted or crocheted squares to form a colourful blanket.

Hillcrest Aids Centre pay people in the community to knit and crochet these squares and are trying to get more Christmas dinners on the table this year by attempting to cover their big tree with as many squares as possible.

Fat Tuesday's position in all this is to be a depot for donations of wool (nice festive colours), needles, squares and money. Our bucket is at the door so please bring all you have to spare. Your donations will go to either our tree or theirs. It's immaterial really as all the proceeds go to the men and women creating the squares.
