“I believe that design has the power to change minds, and that when used well, it has the power to make life that little bit more interesting.”
– myself, 2018.
Hi! My name is Isabella Wilson (everyone calls me Bella). No, I’m not Tom Hanks’ best friend the volleyball, and no, I don’t own and am not related to the owner of Wilson parking. Or Wilson security. Or Wilson sporting goods. (But I do love a game of Tennis!) I am my own Wilson. I am currently a student at UNSW Art & Design. I am full of new ideas and inspiration, and most of all a drive to succeed. I’m passionate about sustainability (in design and otherwise), branding, typography, lettering and interactive media design.
In 2012, I won the Warringah Youth Art Prize, for the most innovative idea, with a work involving sculpture, photography and de-silvered mirrors. In 2013, I expanded upon the aforementioned innovative idea and made it even bigger and better for my HSC Visual Art major work, which was nominated for a Manly HSC showcase exhibition.
In 2015, I started Design and Media studies at UNSW, with the goal of becoming an advertising graphic designer. I majored in Graphics design and Interactive Media – and found an unexpected love for the world of interactive installation design in advertising. In 2019, I spent an Honours year deep diving into this new field full of untapped potential that I am eager to show to the world.
I have a passion for exploring and experimenting with the limits of a project – pushing the boundaries of what is expected, and how technology is normally perceived. Because of this, I’ve learned coding with HTML5, CSS, Processing and MaxMSP, and am always up for learning something new to get me where I want to be!
Although I am only new to the industry, I have a passion for creativity that refuses to be quenched that I believe will bring the advantage to any team. I am a perfectionist and an achiever, a logical thinker and a head-in-the-clouds dreamer.
