I designed a flexible, fabric dome for the top of the London's New Years Day Parade 2025 float and two costumes for performers, printed with sonar imagery I filmed in the Thames near Deptford, linking the underwater, urban environment with advances in medical imaging and science fiction.

The project was made in collaboration with Goldsmiths students, Morgan Tucker (BA Drama and Theatre Arts with Design and Technical Practice) and Yumeng Kuai (BA Fine Art and History of Art), participated in designing the float for youth mentoring charity, Urban Synergy and helped the Lewisham float win the London New Year’s Day Parade.

The fusion between Goldsmiths and the local community saw Alma Tischlerwood, a visual artist and Lewisham Arthouse Member, working on the float design and performers and participants from Mahogany Carnival Arts, Lewisham Youth Theatre and Queen’s Walking Group performing together to bring the float to life.

The float highlighted the innovation and ambition of Lewisham’s young people, using the imagery of science, environment, innovation and resilience within geometric forms, featuring young people and multi-generational performers in colourful costumes.
