genesis

my contribution to the 'el senor' zine about the book of genesis. it represents my interpretation of the story about adam and eve.

(i'm making screenprined posters of this one, soon!)

schaartje

flea market founds: a manual to become a boxing champion, a scissors and a set to create your own typo stamps (i was looking for something like this for ages).

walpurgisnacht

four-page comic i made for human mouth zine. i made the drawings some time ago, but i just found them back, and realised the zine probably never appeared. too bad!

art trek

new big pencil drawing (1,25m x 1,25m) i made for the current art trek show (http://www.art-trek.be/). it's running until the 17th of september, and you should take a look because there are a lot of great artists in it (paul paetzel, till hafenbrak, ana albero, aidan koch, henning wagenbreth, ephameron, vagabundos and many more)!

(art trek 8 - mekanik gallery - sint jacobsmarkt 73 antwerpen - monday-friday 10h-18h30 saturday 10h-19h)

ruisbestuiving is a new project by glimworm, a radio show here in ghent. they released a new record with collaborations between several belgian artists. the covers for the 400 lp's of this record were made by 400 different artists. this is my copy, which you can see, together with the 399 other ones, in the exhibition on the 1st and 2nd of september in DOK (ghent). the day after (3/9) you can listen to the songs and buy the records on the release party.
