Polymath - Polymath won first prize in the category 'Renaissance' at MAD UK 2007. The concept behind the costume looks at Leonardo Da Vinci as a pioneering free thinker. The word Renaissance means re-birth. The costume, when closed, resembled a chrysalis and opened out into Leonardo's flying machine wings. The body revealed is flayed as a symbol of thought shifting towards humanist ideas and scientific faith.

StRain - StRain was awarded the Runners Up Prize and People's Choice Prize at MAD UK 2006. The category was wild weather and the costume looks at heavy rainfall, flooding and landslides. Creating a freestanding inverted umbrella form proved to be an exciting challenge. This costume has since been used for events, photoshoots and street theatre.
