Muses of Mine

Dom Gattermayr & Rose Richards

"We wanted Florian to look like it had existed for a long time, something warm and homey, not sterile or cold"

"I tend to attach some sort of sentimental value to literally everything I own".

"No one is you and that is your power"

"I’m all about connecting and stripping down all those layers to let people see who I am, at my most vulnerable".

"Our known mortality makes us productive and purposeful..."

"Only through our own active self-compassion to our own darkness, can we begin to offer authentic light to anybody else..."

"I live in my work, my work lives in me, I don’t really distinguish the two"

"I feel like I’ve had a lot of practice at coping with isolation, because big and little bouts of isolation are part of the parcel of motherhood."

"Keeping my imagination and spirit alive requires dedicating time to nurture it. It is a flame that must be stopped from ever going out."

"...we’re all working from our homes, everyone is suddenly in each other’s lounge rooms."

"I've learned to enjoy this time as a chance to slow down. It's great for people and the planet in many ways”

"Most of the time (pre-isolation) I was a slave to that little voice that says 'you should be doing more' "
