Design Eye Creative 'paper on skin'

Design Eye Creative 'paper on skin' connects Burnie’s papermaking heritage to a community of international artists who embrace the challenge of designing a wearable garment made from at least 80% paper. Art lovers from around the country travel to experience this showcase of spectacular wearables at our Gala Event and Award Evening. The impact and appeal of this unique medium are reflected in the visceral audience response. Design Eye Creative 'paper on skin' firmly establishes Burnie as a centre of cultural excellence. You will never take paper for granted again! Whilst the live event, scheduled for June 19, will not be going ahead due to COVID-19, we will be filming a virtual version. Stay tuned!
