Ruby Healey

I’m a multidisciplinary designer and sometimes photographer based in Naarm/Melbourne. I work from Idle Time, a studio space that I co-founded and manage. My practice sits at the intersection of communication design and image making with a focus on documenting, interpreting and making sense of our world. I’m interested in collective practice, co-design and independent publishing.

I currently work in a freelance capacity and at social impact organisation, YLab. Get in touch if you’d like to collaborate on a project.

I acknowledge the Custodians of the land in which I live and work, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people of the Kulin nation. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.

MAG DRAG Magazine

Publication design, artist and cover photography, 2023.

MAG DRAG is a collaborative project initiated in 2023 with Eilish Hazell and Em Finucane. MAG DRAG documents the practice and pathway of 12 Naarm-based tattoo artists. The project aims to demystify the artist and bridge connections between artists and clients outside of the limitations of the Instagram algorithim.
