Collaborative design
In collaboration with the talented photographer Jim Stephenson, Very Own Studio designed and constructed a seven-foot number 5. This was then shot on location at the cavernous artists space Rodhus Studios in Brighton. The figure was built using only corrugated cardboard and brown packaging tape and took just over 6 hours to create.
