Client: PBS Radio

PBS is a beloved community radio station based in Collingwood, Melbourne. Every year they run a month-long radio festival to encourage supporters to sign up. Every year they choose a different theme and a different artist to create the campaign.

In 2018, the theme was 'Feast Your Ears' and they chose me to create all the artwork. From posters, animations, merch, CD covers and more! I was inspired by kitschy 70s cookbooks when coming up with the palette and the overwhelming visual banquet of food. I wanted to create fun visual metaphors combining food and music imagery such as the onion headphones and the toaster radio. So much fun!

The artworks were sold as prints and compiled as a cookbook, all to raise money for Melbourne based social enterprise Free to Feed, who employ refugees and asylum seekers as cooking instructors.

My piece was based on Hamed's Iranian recipe for Jewelled Rice. I was inspired by the proverb he recited 'Always Put Love into Your Food to Make it Delicious' an idea which unites all cultures and parts of the world.
