Photoganic art by Victoria Romburgh

Photographic artist, Victoria Romburgh works through a vision that ‘Ones work is symbolic of ones existence.` The way in which one fashions an idea resonates the infinite process of creation, intricately and boundlessly executing, constructing and refining each elegant invention.’   

A great traveller from a young age, Victoria is inspired by Craft: The Collective Culture of Nature. Through her art she explores the intricate relationships & stories, creating One Craft, Our Earth.

The Land, its People, their culture, their callings, each, and all, molded and infinitely changing - This is the craft of the natural world.

An organic aficionada and admirer of naturally textural fabric, the organic value chain is one that inspires Victoria in her quest to promote consciousness through her art. Victoria’s chosen organic fabric mediums are alive with their own natural story from seed to fabric, offering the perfect canvas to portray the story of the her chosen photographic subjects. The unique blend of the organic fabric and the subject symbolize the deeper message, a combined truth, the foundations of which are rooted deep in the natural world.

Since 2009 Victoria has started her own specialist photography design brand, PHOTOGANIC, working in collaboration with nature, local craftsmen and fair trade manufacturers. Through the brand she uses her unique blend of photography and organic fabrics to create a range of naturally functional creations including canvases, cushions, blinds, screens and sunchairs, as well as bespoke creations, and fashion pieces, bringing the conscious consumer a unique a fresh product offering that is harmonious in nature and 100% carbon neutral.

TIGI International Hair Show

A few weeks ago, `TIGI Hair International` held a fabulous show at the `Dream Factory Studio` in Cape Town. We were so happy to make it and wanted to share some of the awesome photo's with you!

The inspiring "Candy Fixation" show was produced all around South Africa, here are some of the photo's from the Cape Town leg. 

Nunzio Magazine was on hand to deliver the striking hairdos and hairWOWz just for you. We had a hand in helping set up lighting, projection, photography, runway, and pa systems for the action packed show. In such a glamorous little venue, this show really stood out for us. 

I'm sure there'll be many more shows to come from all parties involved. Barcode, TIGI, Nunzio Magazine, and AV Direct truly inspired a fantastic visual event performance. The hairsyles and fabulous models did the rest. An amazing night of entertainment and displays of styled art.

"A pioneer design agency in the digital domain"

A turnkey digital design solution consists of audience and customer research, brand persona's and profiles, conceptual design work, testing, implementation phases that include A/B testing - trying out various versions of design concepts - and onto the final execution phase. 

This phase still requires the talents of software developers, animators, market researchers, copywriters, analysts, graphic designers, creative directors, and the behind-the-scenes tea guys (like me) - content editors, data capturing experts, HDD cleaners, and in fact - the list goes on.

It is for combining all these skills into a single project (we get it 'glue' ), a concept, and brand awareness drive - that Nunzio Magazine is proud to showcase 'GLOO' as brilliantly well-crafted digital design agency - further glorifying the fantastic talent here in South Africa.
