Victoria’s practice connects _ design, art, architecture and research. Her practice-based research unites these multiple fields leading to new findings and observations.

The research is a visual creative experience. Charles Bonnet Syndrome visions create a fascinating world where the realm of image crosses over into the realm of perception. The research bridges this with the wonder of metaphors—illustrating one thing as another—where the ambiguity of one concept causes imaginative links creating clarity for another. This project is working with the CBS community as a team of co-creators. A methodology that presents stories, memories, and narrative.

Waves of floating iridescent colour in clouds: transparent and amorphous. This is a visualisation of one of the participants CBS visions.  “The blue and green everywhere is the tale of passion – one that etches itself into memory, indelible as time itself.” Sitting as one of a couple on a park bench, a valley stretches before them, yet they are also surrounded within vibrant hues dancing around them like a symphony of colour, swelling and ebbing with each tender heartbeat.
