update (finally

Its been busy couple of months: first all the final submissions for my masters degree, followed by the exam period and finally the obligatory post-exam intoxication, all of which entailed a marked drop in my productivity levels in regards to art and updating this page (gracefully assisted by blogspots refusal to upload anything here for the past couple of weeks).

After finishing my exams I returned to Denmark to participate in the launch event of an anti-racism and –discrimination campaign created by myself and Babak Vakili, supported by the Copenhagen Council - pictures can be found soon on the internet, in the meantime its worthwhile checking out the homepage over here.

I also got a chance to participate in a youth/social project run by Thomas Tjaerandsen, which consists of a trailer placed on Blågårds Plads (according to the Danish tabloid press, the most dangerous place in Denmark), where he organises activities or playtime. The project has been a success so far, with plenty of happy kids, being taught everything from breakdance to photography, there is even gonna be a real fire engine stopping by (unfortunately after I left).

I had the pleasure of joining him in the trailer for a day, drawing on the outside of it while the kids played around and asked funny questions. It was a great day, although the rotten wood was possibly the worst surface I have ever worked on.

I wasn't the only one making faces

the result of an inexhaustible bag of beer, a whole night and a 120x50 piece of wood, which was to serve as a notice board... An unfortunate flatmate asked me to draw a frame around it and, well there you have it!
