CREATOR TALES (Jan 2018)

“A person, a mother of four, a lawyer and an aspiring author” this interview with Shankari, a fellow Sri Lankan Australian artist was most refreshing. @shankarichandranauthor

A long lost passion project which has become a time capsule. Creator Tales was something like love letters from established artists to their former selves. In January *2018, whilst finishing up my dream of motherland immersion for 3+ years, I suddenly realised I’m not going to have these amazing artist peers on tap anymore, so I was inspired to capture their tips for success. Like Shoegaze dreaming, this was a completely solo, spontaneous passion project which was shot with a phone and a student DSLR camera.

These recordings were feared lost due to 3 (THREE) external hard drives going down in a 6 week period so a few passion project backups of the backups disappeared, but have recently been salvaged. Now I’ve roasted many of you for bad audio in the past, so you can go to town on me here. It’s a safe space.

Thanks to @lakshyafilms for the intro sequence edit. Intro sound design by some guy called @larry_t_hill.
