Creating the launch for Tullamore Dew's new distillery in Ireland was a real privilege. Inspired by their unique branding identity with a generous amount of creative freedom on the event design we created an experience as authentic and local in its execution as possible. Using material sourced and salvaged locally from whiskey barrels, bottles, timber, local sheepskins, flowers picked along the canal banks and handmade decoration we created a simple yet stunning back drop.
On top of this we added Queens of Neon service staff turned out in a super dapper Tullamore Dew look and paired it with Wildside Catering's finest foods and Elemental Design's tables hire and carpentry skills. It was definitely a day to remember.
Once upon a time in the middle of a thick forest.... We had a lot of fun making this video promoting our pop-up banquet at Body and Soul festival. Shot by Ado Brett from Clickzoom with a bunch of our crazy friends and my Mum and Dad.
Below is a little video taken by Barry Egan of the beautifully bonkers banquet in full swing.
When Body and Soul Festival asked us to come up with the theme for their 2013 festival and create a video and photoshoot to promote it we jumped at the chance. Working with a bunch of our creative friends including Ado from Clickzoom we spent an enchanted weekend getting dressed up and shooting up in beautiful Ballinlough Castle.
Queens,Queers & Tarts - Pop - Up Restaurant: When our friends in the Fumbally Café invited us to do a pop-up restaurant in their beautiful space, we were delighted. It deserved a night to remember so we collaborated with our talented friends, Wildside Catering, Neil Watkins, Margie Jean Lewis and Glamo Downey and served up a feast of delicious food, fabulous performances, decor and dress up and an atmosphere of mayhem and mischief.
This is a little feel good art project we dreamt up in 2015. Sometimes when an idea comes to us, like a bolt of lighting, we just won't sit still until it is brought to life. It was no different with the 'Dublin Look Up' project. We began buying stilettos in second-hand shops, spraying them gold, covering them in glitter and then waited until the winter nights to settle in before throwing them up around the the city.
We hope you enjoy this little video as much as we enjoyed making it! Thank you to all the Gold Shoe elves that helped make it.
Our first art installation for Body and Soul Festival ‘The Little House of Lost Toys’ was dream up by myself and Amo Downey. We wanted to create a cosy sanctuary for festival goers to immerse themselves in memories of their hopefully beloved soft toys. We put a leather bound book inside with pens to write messages to their furry buddies who have been lost over the years.
