FUUUUDGE!!!

I made this yesterday for Robin Sillau because I miss hearing from her.

'Marshwallow?' 'Not thanks.'

The Centre de Développement Chorégraphique in Toulouse have been given some space in a building near their office and they've turned it into a big flat with 7 bedrooms and a kitchen/living area that has a massive dance studio above it. That way, companies can come for a couple of weeks and all stay and work together in the same place. At the moment, it looks a bit like an old people's home with all its fire safety cards, disabled showers and non-slip floors. So they asked a lady who used to be a decorator and an awesome upholsterer to make it look nice and look after it. So she's going to decorate each room and she'll also be there when it's occupied to welcome people and cook one meal a day for them.

They also thought it would be a good idea to have me draw all over the walls. I drew a forest with some animals saying stuff vaguely related to communal living and painted some little reminders in all the bedrooms, bathrooms and corridor.

The pictures are not very good but I'll take some proper ones when the furniture's in.

I've been at CDP for a little while doing some ads for UNIQLO. They've launched hundreds of new t-shirt designs and decided it would be a good idea to tell people about it, which is usually when advertising comes in handy. The collages use tons of pictures of good looking models and anime images, with a couple of Harings and Basquiats thrown into the mix. It was a fun project but a bit of a logistical nightmare since all of the images on there have to have a different copyright, you see. But we got through it and successfully spread it all over London. I've been doing other things but I'll show you later.

"Put that in your pipe and smoke it."

That was the brief for this illustration:



So I made a drawing of that annoying Caterpillar guy from Alice in Wonderland being shoved into a giant pipe. That'll shut him up. It's in the Hospital Club mag together with a photo of Yours Truly's face and my life story.

I did a project with Nick Flügge and it ended up on the Creative Review blog. Look!

They didn't find it essential to talk about the way it looks but it's ok.
