About Me

- "Facinated with the idea that appearances are deceptive, Tessa Blazey has explored ideas of camouflage and illusion through three degrees and countless design projects. She did a bachelor in sculpture and one in interior design from RMIT, and then followed her calling and completed a jewellery diploma at NMIT. Tessa's creations, produced under the name Fiction, encompass all her experience - sculptural rings, pendants and earrings play with light and shadow and define interior spaces within, revealing new aspects of themselves as you ger closer. Her work is bound to adorn both fictional heroines and science fiction goddesses." Viviane Stappmanns, The Melbourne Design Guide 2009-2011.

oh wow - I had never heard of dazzle camouflage so thanks for that.
Bridget Riley must have known about it when she went op-art in the Sixties.
Groovy stylish rings too, and the dress at the top of the blog is a masterpiece so Bravo!
