Dunedin Dream Brokerage DDB is activating the digital-sphere right into your pocket, connecting you to local social media creatives featuring some of Dunedin’s finest spots. Too cold to go out but love seeing Dunedin through our hive of creative minds? Join us at #Locations_of_Interest
DDB activates under-utilised urban and retail spaces through brokering a lively programme of art project occupation. But these COVID times have temporarily shifted the paths we walk and the places we meet. To occupy this moment we put a call out to our creative communities inviting artists to match their social signatures with their favourite Dunedin locations, so audiences could catch them wherever they were isolating.
In this latest ‘season’ of Locations of Interest, we want to encourage locals to discover and explore our creative community’s favourite Dunedin summer locations, through a reimagined lens.

As an installation artist, her pieces communicate whimsy and interactivity, creating immersive environments through escapist elements. Jess has worked on numerous creative endeavours from music events to micro music and art festival Lettuce Inn, community events; large and small scale, exhibitions, music videos and more. Her recent projects have been focused on working with fibres creating interactive sculptural pieces that sit in a realm where art, craft and functionality collide. This process-based practice is an exploration of colour, texture and pattern..
