"Deadstock" is a collection of works in collaboration with artist Catherine Walsh @catsndbats, which showcases the the creative possibilities of repurposing discarded materials. These artworks features a range of pieces, including collages, sculptures, and fashion designs, all incorporating deadstock materials. The use of these materials adds a unique texture and character to each piece.

As a lover of sustainability and the arts, Catherine Walsh otherwise known as Catsndbats has long been interested in finding new ways to reduce waste in the fashion and manufacturing industries. With "DEADSTOCK" the collaboration has combined their passions, creating stunning works of art from deadstock materials that would have otherwise been discarded or stockpiled.

The exhibition features a range of works, including collages, sculptures, and fashion designs. Each piece incorporates deadstock materials, adding a unique texture and character to the finished product.
