Gabriella Marina Gonzalez has launched

her A/W10-11 accessories collection

entitled“Victorian SCI-FI Surgery”.

Her current work was inspired by

exploring feelings of emotional restrain

and uncertainty about her position

in time. She uses escapism to create a

subconscious reality were time has no

boundaries and she can bounce from

past to future to collect data in an attempt

to discover her purpose in the present.

This is were she developed her designs

for the current collection. T he collection

mixes periods and materials to create a

historical camouflage making it difficult

to associate with a particular period in

documented time. This allows her to jump

from era to era collection data unnoticed

in hopes of one day understanding the

world, human nature and herself. T he

collection was entirely hand made with

her own hands in a long and meditative

state adding a personal and emotional

connection to each individual piece. She

believes this transfers a bit of her aura

to the piece in hope that the glow will

shine acting like a light house of hope to

lost and weary roamers so that they will

know they are not alone. T he collection

consist mostly of brown and cream

leathers, bronze fixtures and old stamps

which gives the appearance of being

made from reminisce of an abandoned

Victorian house. T he T-shirt imagery is

representative of a nameless ghost who

explores the timeless subconscious world

as people run with fear of the unknown.

The platform shoes are an tool for the

explorer. There towering heights create

a pedestal form which she can look over

crowded, infinite seas of people trying to

stay afloat while searching for answers

on this busy planet.
