OUToMatic poster production.


My fantastic helper #1: Cristina Torres







































My marvellous helper #2: Sandra Frübing



Lessor learnt: must wear goggles while cleaning a screen.










































































Thanks, Tripiti, for cutting the posters for free!

Final result.

----

I designed and screen printed these posters for Outomatic street art festival in Leuven. I printed them in Mesh Print Club. Thanks to Tripiti Printer for cutting the posters for free. And a very special thanks to Sandra and Cristina who were very supportive, efficient and hard-working during the process. They are also responsible for most of these photos.

These posters will be for sale at the festival. Each one of them signed by the artists that are participating.

OUToMatic






























I'm doing the graphic design for OUToMatic street art festival. If you have the chance to go to Leuven in August, you'll get to see all the interventions the artists are doing there.

The internet:

“The internet, at this time in history, is the greatest client assignment of all time. The Western world is porting itself over to the web in mind and deed and is looking to make itself comfortable and productive. It’s every person in the world, connected to every other person in the world, and no one fully understands how to make best use of this new reality because no one has seen anything like it before. The internet wants to hire you to build stuff for it because its trying to figure out what it can do. It’s offering you a blank check and asking you to come up with something fascinating and useful that it can embrace en masse, to the benefit of everyone.”
– Ben Pieratt

Wel Oud Niet Seniel - gathering.






























































































Last week Janneke managed to get most of the participants together of her project "Wel Oud Niet Seniel" for which I did the graphic design work. I had seen the videos quite a few times and grew quite fond of some of the interviewed people, so it was very special to see them here, live, sitting around me watching themselves on the screen, chuckling at times, keeping very quiet and pensive at others. It was a special moment. Congratulations, Janneke, for this lovely idea. I love the outcome.

The gathering was at Iris Cornellius gallery.

Satisfaction.





























Though it started off quite slow, I did end up selling quite a bit on Sunday at Swan Market. Here you can see one of the most satisfying moments of these markets, when someone decides your work is good enough to hang on their wall. Yay!

It's Friday!



This video made me goosebumpy for almost 15 minutes.

Love the contrast of her amazing voice and her silly laugh.

Sunday the 10th: "The One & The Many" exhibition and abandoned submarine parts.

























































































































































































































































































































































































































































I visited the exhibition "The One & The Many" for the second time (they kindly let me go in for free the second time). I won't explain too much about it to not spoil the surprise in case you do go. If you go, I do recommend to interact with the people at the exhibition. Strange things happen.

After a beer in the sun in front of Onderzeebootloods we decided to have a peak at this big and what looked like abandoned area, full of strange pieces that looked like submarine parts. There was this silver structure that looked like a space ship with a very suggestive entrance.

We also found this little green house under construction. It looked like people had had a party in it a while ago. We decided to have a peak inside, rather nice house indeed, wouldn't mind living there for a while (if the floor was finished).

I also really liked all the plants squeezing their way through the concrete, such strong, determined little beings!
