Gabriella Gonzalez: Victorian SCI-FI Surgery.

Central Saint Martins graduate Gabriella Gonzalez recently launched her handmade A/W ‘10-’11 accessories collection called Victorian SCI-FI Surgery.

This work was inspired by exploring feelings of emotional restrain and uncertainty about position in time. Gabriella uses escapism to create a subconscious reality were time has no boundaries. She collects data in an attempt to discover her purpose in the present. The collection mixes periodes and materials to create a historical camouflage making it difficult to associate with a particular period in time. The pieces are entirely handmade adding a personal and emotional connection to each individual piece. The collection consists mostly out of brown and cream leathers, bronze fixtures and old stamps which gives the appearance of being made from reminisce of an abandoned Victorian house.

Victorian SCI-FI Surgery is available to order at Machine-A boutique, 60 Berwick Street, Soho, London.
