Belle Du Jour set ~ fundraising edition

A limited edition set of 15 exclusive portraits taken by Dylan Le'mon (finalist in the National Portrait prize 23, a MAPH Bowness portrait prize 23 finalist and PCP Iris award finalist 23.) These 15 exclusive portraits / reference photos come as a pack with the special fundraising price of $80 AUD. Belle Du Jour is the name of the beautiful dress.

I am fundraising to assist with starting back at art school (sculpture) after a period of illness accumulating with a period of hospitalisation, loosing sight in one eye and becoming low vision in June 23. The doctors believe this is the first sign along with other symptoms of a (chronic) disease of the central nervous system - auto immune disorder. I am currently in testing and monitoring. I require medical treatments and aids which I have been self funding as my application to the National Disability Insurance Scheme is still being processed (it's been 9 months). There is a backlog there. Your support in creating with me on this set will go towards medical treatments, visual aids and school supplies while I wait for assistance.

I am a practising artist and life model from a low socio economic background with existing disability before the blindness so am used to working very hard to sustain my creative practice. This latest development is just taking a lot of adjusting in a world that demands we go fast, where I must be a little slower and a little kinder to myself as I adjust and heal. Thank you for your collaborations and kindness.
