Can you spare a few dollars to help in.cube8r post

Can you spare a few dollars to help in.cube8r post lockdown 2.0?

Since March, I have been trying to support our makers as much as possible by reducing their membership fees to cover what we need to survive, however I did so thinking that Australia was in a good position and not expecting to go into lockdown again.

A week before the announcement of lockdown 2.0 we were preparing to open back to normal hours to help cover the upcoming rent, business loan repayments, insurance and utilities bills which all kick back to their usual rates in September.

While we are continuing to support our makers via our online store and all that goes on behind the scenes, the truth is that our little business model just doesn't work in the current climate. Our business relies on us being open to pay the bills, and while we have a little coming in via grants and contributions from our makers we are concerned about the future of our bricks and mortar locations.

One of my staff members kindly set up a go fund me after a few dark days last week, so I am sharing it here. I feel uncomfortable putting my hand out in the current climate while so many retail businesses are struggling however I am reminded that our business is unique and that there's not much else we can do to survive while we are not open as we don't sell physical products of our own or offer services which are accessible online. All the proceeds from sales of the gorgeous items in our online store are paid back to the artists which is a foundational element of our business and ethos.

So, if you have a spare few dollars to spare and would like to help keep our bricks and mortar businesses going post lockdown your contribution would be greatly appreciated. All funds raised in the go-fund-me will be put towards upcoming rent and insurance bills so that we can contune to keep costs low for our makers during this time and those in our cube-family who are struggling to cover their fees as well.

If you would like to contribute something you can do so via the link in bio or if you want me to email you the link just reach out by DM. To those who have already contibuted, thank you so much. It means the world to us.

👋🏻 CUBE FAM PUT YOUR HANDS UP! 👋🏻 ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Did you know there are currenly more than 100 makers in the cube-fam? That's alot of heads!!!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
If you don't know, at in.cube8r, makers pay a monthly membership to be involved, and we pay them 100% of their sales. More importantly though, we're a group of creative minded individuals who recognise the importance of community, collaboration and raising others up.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I thought it would be fun to introduce everyone in one post, but then it seemed like alot of words! ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So instead... CUBERS UNITE, post a sentence about who you are and what you do to introduce yourself to the extended family!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Meet our awesome cubers down below and check out their work by clicking through to their profiles! ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And shop their collections online 24/7 from the safety of your home :)⁠⠀

Have you met @zsofisamu_art yet?⁠ ⁠ She is one

Have you met @zsofisamu_art yet?⁠
⁠
She is one of our #Prahran Cubers and currently also has work in the STRUCTURE exhibition which was rudely interupted by #covid19 but is now available to view on the website!⁠
⁠
I've been fascinated by Zsofi's work since I met her, as I have a soft spot for weaving and love that she works alot with coloured wire! I asked her a few questions which are shared below. ⁠
⁠
❔ What do you love about weaving?⁠
⁠
🎙️ I was 19 when I started weaving and it was love for the first touch. There is something about the slow and repetitive motion, the warp and weft connecting into a tactile structure and the colours and textures blending into patterns that makes weaving special.⁠
⁠
❔ I've noticed your work at in.cube8r often uses wire which is quite unique, what drew you to that material?⁠
⁠
🎙️ During art school where I studied textile design, I spent a term in Helsinki, at the Finnish Art and Design Academy. There I was introduced to alternative weaving materials inc copper and steel wire. From that time fine wire has became the most constituent material I use. It allows me to shape the fabric I weave into sculptural objects. I also love it because it catches the light and shines! ⁠
⁠
❔ How long have you been doing this kind of work?⁠
⁠
🎙️ My practice goes back to 12 years all up. (there was a 7 year gap in the middle when I didn't do any art)⁠
⁠
❔ Anything interesting in the works?⁠
⁠
🎙️ I'm currently working on an exciting social project called "Casting Stories" - it is going to be a woven book!⁠
⁠
You can check our Zsofi's work via the link in bio! There's a bunch of lovely pieces including framed art cards, baskets and even some cute little planters filled with cacti! 🌵⁠
⁠
And don't worry, we will let you know as soon as that book is out! ⁠

If we're stuck with wearing masks for the forseeab

If we're stuck with wearing masks for the forseeable future, we may as well get an awesome collection of them in our rotation!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Our online store has been restocked with a bunch of masks made by our cubers, including this #versace one made by @jado.sekkei from a small piece of fabric he had been holding onto for the perfect occasion. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
We've also got @celestialcloset #earsavers back in stock and @apois17 has made some gorgeous little mask bags to keep spare fabric masks on hand and clean in your bag. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Swipe through to see just a portion of the selection on offer and check out the website for more mask options!⁠⠀

Well. Stage 4 it is then!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ As you may

Well. Stage 4 it is then!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
As you may know, we launched our online store on Sunday just a few hours before the big announcement ... what timing!⁠And stage 4 = this little shop won’t be opening it’s doors to the public for at least the next 6 weeks
⁠⠀
What you may not know, is how in.cube8r works.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
We charge our cubers a daily membership fee for the days we open our store. And we pay them 100% of their sales. It's awesome and under normal circumstances it works really well for everyone involved!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So... Stage 4. No Retail. That means no days. That means not much in the way of revenue for this little biz.⁠
⁠⠀
If you would like to support in.cube8r through the coming months, please consider buying one of our limited edition cube pins. The funds will help is continue to pay the rent!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You can buy them on our website, along with creations from more than 50 local makers who are also doing it tough on our online store right now... link in bio xx⁠⠀
⁠⠀
PS, we’ve added the option to pickup after lockdown, because postage sucks and also because it means we will get to thank you in person 💕
