some images form a recent project we made: converse/foot locker asked me to create a ‘string’ piece showcasing their new ‘converse woven’ series
a photographer followed me for a day in the studio while i assembled the piece and of course they asked me to wear them…
i also made a previous showcase piece with strings for them last month, check it out here
these projects were done in collaboration with local agency ‘superheroes’
nice series from photographer jonathan castillo who: …catches people idling in traffic, suspended in thought and action. “I’m really interested in capturing those introspective moments that we all have in our cars,” he says. “Overall though, the project is just as much about Los Angeles and the car culture as it is about the people.”…
probably the first (and last) time i will ever admit to liking a coca cola print advert, spotted around amsterdam this week…
an interesting overview of contemporary embroidery and stitching techniques
featuring some of the international artists who prominently use them in their work
the new identity for the holland festival is currently all over town, made by thonik
a big departure from the former identity by maureen mooren (enter holland festival in me search to see some of the former years) and a nod to HF in earlier decades; with a retro feel to the stencil font and colour schemes used
i feel that this work wouldn’t have looked out-of-place in the 1960’s or 1970’s on the streets of amsterdam, this is necessarily meant as criticism as i’m still undecided whether this is a good or bad thing…
