World Of Wearable Art Museum- Nelson, NZ.

Before crossing over to the North Island, we started to hear more and more about the Golden Bay and how well worth a visit it would be for art enthusiasts like ourselves. This is when we had the idea to rent a car, naming him Jerry, and setting off for the week to venture along the coast.

I didn't get us too lost....honest....

Our first stop was at Nelson where we came across the amazing WOW museum.

I love the illustration above of the clown. Its rather creepy but very creative and skillfully drawn. The garments on show at the Museum were extraordinary and incredible. It definately got us inspired to start creating designs again!

Below are some images I took of the work on display. My favourite section of the Museum was the neon area where the garments were very eye catching and exciting to photograph.

New Zealand!

March of this year we arrived in New Zealand! Unfortunately because of the Christchurch earthquake we had to fly straight over to Hokitika where our adventure began starting with the Wild Foods Festival!

This was an excellent time to be in the small town with over 15,000 people from all over New Zealand passing through its gates. The Festival has become an iconic special event celebrating Hokitika and the wild foods of the West Coast.

Imagine this: wasp larvae icecream, cucumber fish, sheep milk cheeses and wok fried clams! Brave enough to try?

Unfortunately we had to leave half way through the main day of the festival to catch our bus to Franz Josef but here are a couple of images that I took of the day:
