Erin Veronica Ender (she/her) www.heandeve.com

Designed and built in 2015 by Henrik Ender and Erin Veronica Ender (he&eve) BIGBANG x SHEBANG! studio was architecturally engineered for social and cultural change.  Erin grew a love for the power of inspiring students while tutoring and designing content for students in Architecture, Interior and Spatial Design for RMIT, Swinburne and Monash Uni consecutively for 2 decades and counting. Erin's artistic practice is centered around the production of ephemeral environments (eg. happenings/ exhibitions) showcasing the audience's everyday theatre (eg. behaviours/ costume) contributing to our collective cultural identity here in so-called Australia.
