Marcus Whale x Megan Hanson collaboration happens often. The images featured here are of our costume collaboration on Marcus’ Needlemouth performance at SoftCentre, Carriageworks, 2023. For this work, Marcus was embodying the Chinese mythological figure of the Hungry Ghost, an exporation of his grandfathers death, which occurred on the festival of the same name. 

The garments employ a variety of different techniques, including felting with wool, nuno felting with wool and silk fabric, engineered sublimation prints featuring images of his own torso, direct to garment printing, natural dye and stitch.
