Promotional Photography for Melancholia

“It has been such a great experience to have AARTICHOKE STUDIOS in the room to help document various parts of our creative process.” - Garry Stocks, Studio Stocks.

AARTICHOKE STUDIOS collaborated with former Australian Ballet dancer Garry Stocks and the dancers at Studio Stocks to capture behind-the-scenes moments and promotional imagery for their debut production, Melancholia.

Our photographs were featured across the studio’s social media and used as part of their production documentation.
