HOMECOMING – A project with Bassike by kidsofbill & Peter Van Alphen

The journey home is a curious one, full of questions and contrasts. Swinging from sun dappled nostalgia to the things we selectively forget, going home is a mixed emotion that is as comforting as it is loaded.

TRUE TO FORM – A PROJECT WITH BASSIKE BY DAN GOODE

When Deborah Sams and Mary Lou Ryan co-founded Bassike in 2006 their intention was pure and without precedent - high-quality basics, honestly made. The brand name’s creative play on ‘basic’ would set the tone for the product; an offering that added interest, and integrity, to everyday essentials.

FREE FALLING BY TĀNE COFFIN

There’s nothing so surreal as free falling; a hurtling kind of floating full of contradiction, at once peaceful and full of panic.

TAKE BACK THE NIGHT – A PROJECT WITH CHANEL BEAUTY BY JAMIE HEATH AND VICTORIA BARON

Women know that the night is the stage for our most brilliant transformations. Inspired by the magnetism of the same moon at which a dog barks, comes the CHANEL Holiday 2022 Collection. The French house compels us to paint lips luminous shades of amber, red and gold; to embrace pearlescent skin and celestial shimmer. Jamie Heath captures New Zealand born Bernadette Anker in 'Take Back The Night' with beauty direction by Victoria Baron.

PEOPLE OF NOTE: KREW BOYLAN AND DANIEL WEBBER BY SOPHIE BROCKWELL & SOPHIE DONALDSON

Whilst Dolly and Kenny mightn’t have been actual an item, this fictional relationship between two tribute acts in the new classical, Seriously Red, is an original take on the dynamic between love interests. Far from the typical romantic tropes we see on screen, it’s a relationship dependant on each individual masquerading as somebody else. Krew Boylan, who wrote the screenplay, stars as the titular Red, a property valuer turned Dolly Parton impersonator who becomes entangled with Kenny, a tribute performer deeply embedded in his own on-stage persona, played by Daniel Webber.

PEOPLE OF NOTE: CLAUDE SCOTT-MITCHELL IN PARTNERSHIP WITH JAN LOGAN

Sans makeup and social media Claude Scott-Mitchell is a clean break from the standard code of conduct for someone of her age and vocation, opting to express herself through character arc rather than publicise her private moments. JAN LOGAN’s newest collaborator is quietly chartering her own path to greatness. Dan Roberts shoots Australian actress, Claude Scott-Mitchell.
