    International Art & Design Competition 2020Accademia Riacci
    I entered the 2020 International Art & Design Competition. The brief was “represent in any form of art, the mixture of two cultures: Italian and your own country’s”. I chose to explore my families culture of the Isle of Wight and combined this with personal family photographs of Italy to portray the feelings of Nostalgia. I sent off a selection of work, and amazingly I came 2nd place in the non-professional divison, winning a year’s study at the Accademia Riaci, in the heart of florence, Italy for Fashion Design.
