MARRYING JULY AND AUGUST TOGETHER

We are now in August! And I’m in Germany!
I know what you’re thinking, I’ve missed July but I haven’t.

It’s just all part of a bigger plan.

I’ve had to marry July and August together for this big project. I needed more paper and more time than just one Marie Claire could offer.

The July issue of Marie Claire focused on their support of gay marriage. They published a series of celebrities wearing ‘I do’ slogan tshirts, with a brief quote about why they support marriage equality.

The House of Representatives sit in August 2012 from the 14^th to the 23^rd and if the amendment isn’t extended the MP’s will vote on same sex marriage being recognised in the Australian Marriage Act. 
I took this idea and run to Germany with it. Where same sex marriage has been legal for over 10years.   

I needed help for this project and where better to creatively collaborate than in Berlin, with Berlin based Australian jewellery designer Mies Nobis.

I don’t what to give too much away, but as August rolls on, so too will the progress of this project. It will all come together in the end... you’ll see.
