this tuesday there are various reasons to celebrate - or at least lets hope so. First it's Gilly's B'day - sure date to party, and then if we and our co- earthlings are lucky there might be a change in the white house.... lets cross the fingers and press our thumbs as we german speakers do.... So anyone in London next week - Tuesday is Election Party - Come prepared!

I am taking part in this years Central Saint Martins graduate show as part of the London Design Festival. You are all more than welcome to the private view tuesday 16th of September 9 am

 

for poster no.1 of 6... soon I will need to type down the concept and then it will end up on here as well. So far let me just explain I am playing with "urban rhythm" and the idea that every urban feature we come cross on the streets gives our city experience a very distinctive beat or rhythm by making us stop/go move left right and so on. Becoming aware of this and actively change and input in this rhythm is the purpose of the 6 guides or posters I am designing. Their end format will be B1 unfolding form B5. Using my illustrations as main communication medium - well so far more sense and detail soon... at the moment I am too tired for that.

In my non working life I am still a student... and as that sit in lectures an crits... very welcome opportunity to sketch whatever pops up around me... colleague, tutor, plastic up..... all the same to me ;)

the presentations and crits keep coming - so do the sketches....

found this sketches I did a while ago... again keeping my mind focused with a pencil.

an update on my sketches... did those during the follow up crit of our work in progress show (went pretty good btw - a lot better than I and most people from class expected... should never underestimate the power of time pressure)... The following day sitting in a cafe working on the sketches I had some help from the coffee shop owner's kid... Decided I am not scared of kids anymore - at least when they hold a pen...

This will be the backdrop for my installation at the work in progress show. I am planning to print it at least on two A0. Pictures and more soon, the show is on tuesday (see flyer) so fingers crossed.

just came back from a short korea trip - amazing country, incredible food - just wow And so busy that I didn't really have time to draw - still...
