Emily Galea

︎︎   
Emily Galea is an emerging designer with a passion for branding, photography and illustration. While very diverse, her aesthetic approach often merges minimalism with a distinct sense of play. She is inspired by the world around her: music, cars, architecture and her dad’s 80s t-shirt collection. Her work aims to elevate brand offerings by pinpointing audience appeal and distilling core messaging down to its clearest and freshest visual form.
Branding for the Australian Museum's Changing Climate exhibition centred around the phrase “Little Things Make Big Things Happen”. The aim was to engage and inform a wide audience by communicating the idea that there are solutions to climate change and that we can make a difference as well as enticing viewers to see the exhibition. This portraiture series captures the athleticism and beauty that is a dancer. The subject photographed, Tamsyn Craig, represents the fluidity and pure emotion that is dance, which is expressed across the series. Feminism Is Not Terrorism: a poster inspired by centrefolds, brings attention to women's rights issues, created during the peak of women’s marches across the world. Supporting the poster is a parody magazine ‘Played’.
