Initial - Leisure System Berghain Berlin


This is still a work in progress however whilst waiting on feedback I thought i would upload a low res version of an animated flyer of the event held at Berghain, in Berlin. The event was put on by record label Leisure System. Using Berlin's Objekt "The Goose that Got Away". This line up looks insane!

Susan Sontag- On Photography ( re-edit)

This was a personal project after reading Susan Sontag's, On Photography. I wanted to create an illustrative cover incorporating the books theme. The book was really inspirational and is a really great reference book, for students and aspiring photographers.

Shirin Neshat- Parasol Unit foundation for contemporary art



To view the full post at Berlin Art Link including my own photos of the opening, and my words on the exhibit click here.




On a recent visit home to London, I was lucky enough to check out the Shirin Neshat opening at the Parasol Unit foundation for contemporary art. After walking through Yinka Shonibare’s Jardin d’Amour (Garden of Love), a tricky endeavor, I eventually arrived at Shirin’s video installation Fervor, 2000. Also exhibiting was Yang Fudong, and Christodoulos Panayiotou under an overall theme of ‘I Know Something About Love’.
Fervor, 2000, was being projected on two screens in black & white, and immediately focused on the negative view of love within the Iranian culture after the Islamic revolution. The black & white medium was an instant reflection of the clear-cut contrast of men and women in the mosque, with women in black veils and the men in white shirts.
In this piece, Shirin Neshat depicts two stories, one of a man, and another a woman, both in the same place, at the same time on independent screens. Throughout the narrative there is an infuriating conflict between the focal characters, as they both notice each other’s presence even without being able to see one another. This tension builds until the female character leaves, creating a feeling of helplessness with the audience. This division between the projection screens helped to depict the separation and distance of love within the culture, and separation from the women in this society, a detachment possibly felt by the artist after the Islamic revolution in Iran.

Casolare - Italian restaurant on the riverside

This is the start of an inking on top of the sketch based on a chilly autumn day, with a woman enjoying a warm soup outside. Soon to be rendered, with the woman being backlit focusing on a limited colour palette and adding the leaves to the trees in a variety of ways as an experiment.

May Day Riots in Kreuzberg Berlin

This is an illustration based on the mass riots that thrive in my new 'Kiez' in Berlin, Kreuzberg, on the first of May. This demonstration is where people protest against the capitalist movement mainly activists. See more here.

This will soon be rendered and added to my Berlin illustrations.

Stop Motion

These are a series of short stop motion animation clips made from single photos. These are to be composed as a film and also for visual additions for Dj's. Using VDMX and a projector these clips will be looped and transformed, along with other visual displays I will create to enhance the atmosphere in a venue, adding a visual stimulant as well as an audio pleasure.





Personal Branding

This is an initial idea for a business card, for self promotional purposes. Would also make a nice CD cover to case my work to give to art directors.
