Octarock Studio flooded help
Donation protected
Hi I am in Wanganui New Zealand there was a big flood on the 20th of june.
I have lost my studio as you can see from the videos an photos from the flood. The house has mud and water right the way throught it. We are going to have to get new carpet and wall paper to name a few.
At this time we can not go home for a while. We have been staying at a rental untill we are told it is safe for us to go home an live in the house.
It could be till November that we can move back in an at that pont i can start rebuild the studio.
Update video will be post on here when ever i can.
A little info on myself.
I have been working with glass for 7 years an doing flameworking for 6 years. The studio turned 5 years old last year.
In the studio I did make pendnts bottles to name a few. I also did cast glass work with my klin from plates and sculptures.
Each year the studio around march is open for the public to come buy my work and see the studio for the Wanganui open studio event, link is below.
