CREATIVE BIO:
Chloe Lisa Martha is an emerging stylist, photographer and a style promoter for bands based in Sydney, Australia. From a young age she has always had a creative eye for things channeling the simplicity of colour with playful textures as well as compelling visually through photography. With an broad creative direction to ‘STATIC ESCAPE’ characterised by her use of bold colours, grunge elements, textures, accessories and levels of movement. Her work is considered to be known for its purposeful chaos with aspects of the candid moments as she believes that those unplanned snapshots carry the simple, unfiltered beauty of life.
DESIGN STATEMENT:
This concept, titled “STATIC ESCAPE,” is a visual exploration of how music transforms emotions into shared physical authentic experiences such as concerts. It is a direct response to music’s role as a universal language that impacts emotion, culture, memory, and communication worldwide. My creative direction is focusing on the emotional escape, pop & grunge and feelings.
The project conveys energy of pop with the raw authenticity of grunge. This tension is captured through the photography, which utilises the controlled chaos of blurred movements, dynamics and styling. The blurring technique visually articulates the feeling of being fully immersed in music a state wherever you may be.
This approach is designed to resonate with the audience by capturing a range of mixed emotions, inviting a sense of fun and laughter alongside deeper thinking. Therefore “STATIC ESCAPE” emphasises music’s power to serve as both an authentic refuge (escape) and bringing people together through shared human feelings. The resulting styled images are visually presented as emotional and cultural impact of sound is expressed as relateable.
