Marlene Revisited (Housewife Dreaming) 2020,
Created by Zam
‘Housewife Dreaming’ is the 7th piece in the series. This one was probably inspired by Australian and English home-making, craft and interiors magazines that I used to buy back in the day when I was still a voracious collector of vintage stuff, and they were found easily and far more cheaply for reference material.

Marlene Revisited (Botanica Exotica) 2020,
Created by Zam
‘Botanica Exotica’ is the 8th piece in the series. This one has influences of Marie Antoinette and the Rococo period, 1930s Berlin underground culture, and a hint of pop icon Madonna. Interestingly Madonna has referenced both in her career (the first for her performance of Vogue at the MTV AWArds, 1990, the latter during her ‘Erotica’ album phase). There’s also vintage rose print wallpaper incorporated, which I peeled off the walls of a home being demolished in Double Bay, Sydney which had belonged to a wealthy dentist.

Marlene Revisited (Kimono) 2020, Created by Zam
‘Kimono’ is the 9th piece in the series. I’ve always loved Asian objet d’art and design. This one was inspired by Japanese culture in particular the delicate colourings of vintage Kimono fabrics, as well as Japanese pop culture and fashion. I worked in some capacity on ‘Fruits’ an internationally touring exhibition of magazine/book publisher Shiochi Aoki’s photos, which documented the Harajuku fashion movement, based in the Shibuya District, Tokyo. At this same time Gwen Stefani had just released the heavily Harajuku-influenced hit album “Love Angel Music Baby’ which I was coincidentally listening to as I worked on that job. All those things continue to have a significant influence on me, and I guess this is the result!
Marlene Revisited (Jellies) 2020, Created by Zam
‘Jellies’ is the 10th piece in the series. This one was inspired by children’s birthday celebrations but it also has a vintage burlesque/circus feel to it. I do love all kinds of cakes, pin ups and show girls.

Marlene Revisited (Inbetween Days) 2020, Created by Zam
‘Inbetween Days’ is the 11th piece in the series. Growing up the music, as well as the graphics/image utilized by group The Cure was in equal parts a massive influence on my teenage mind for years. I particularly liked the drawings for record sleeves which I think may have been done by lead Robert Smith.
This piece takes its inspiration from the Tim Pope–directed video clip for their 1985 single ‘Inbetween Days’ as well as the art direction of English Smash Hits magazine of the time which incorporated rough collage, colourful paint splashes, and snippets of vintage advertising in a really creative and humorous way.
