YARDWORKS GLASGOW 2019

In May we spent 3 days painting at Scotland’s only street art graffiti festival YARDWORKS in Glasgow alongside 120 other artists. 11,000 members of the public visited SWG3 where the event was held over the weekend and just like every year the sun was shining.

It was great fun painting this mural. Especially the roughed up “rust” background technique, which contrasts the sharp lines of the sketch and the crispness of our isometric cube designs.

Since “Yardworks” first started back in 2017 we haven’t missed an event!

Thank you to all the wonderful people who came to visit us and came to say hello throughout the event and a huge thank you to Gaz Mac,  Marriene Vosloo and all the other organisers who make Yardworks so fantastic.
The finished mural can be found at the entrance to the SWG3 building on Eastvale Place.
Spray paint supplied by Kobra Paint.

SNUB23 X BOSS ALIEN 2019

It all begins with an idea.

SNUB23 x BOSS ALIEN
Painted over two weeks. Freehand spray paint characters and a stencilled isometric wrap. This project gave us the chance to fully wrap a room, rather than just a ‘feature’ wall. Getting in while the space was under construction we had the freedom to paint the entire room how we thought best. And then the interior design had something to work with, resulting in a total iso environment.

We we’re lucky enough to take part in this years ADEV parade (info below)
Representing Friekens Brouwerij we painted a wall on a mobile platform, towed by an airport luggage truck through the city. It was a surreal experience, music booming, smoke bombs, beer and bumps. Finished by the time we all pulled up to party and drink a keg or two. We even painted a tiny car and a collab with Dive Jedi.

About ADEV
Just like last year we’ll dance for the future of Amsterdam’s underground in a parade right through the city centre. We claim our free space in a week where the global dance industry exploits most indoor venues in Amsterdam. Join us in reclaiming the streets and dance to the mobile sounds systems from the Amsterdam underground: Villa Friekens, Schijnheilig, De Valreep, Nimatek, ADM, Dutch Acid Family, Betoeterd, Bajes Dorp and Kalash & Nikov.

The Dutch dance scene was born in the underground. In spaces that were free of commerce and permit culture. Where people could experiment without the need to make a profit. Where volunteers and amateurs could make a new scene flourish.

This fertile underground is under serious threat. Two squats have been evicted last year and existing ones are facing intimidation by the authorities. Meanwhile, Amsterdam faces the largest percentage of unoccupied office space in Europe. 

The time has come for the underground to reclaim its fertile free space. For new subcultures to be born. We want to offer Amsterdam an alternative for the commercial clubs and regulated spaces. 

‘Our dance parade is a non-commercial statement during ADE. It’s a free and fun alternative where we dance for a good cause. For reconnecting the underground locations and organizations. For inspiring the people to get self-organizing, stop consuming and start creating.’

GIANT MURAL AT UPFEST 2018 – BRISTOL

“VERTIGO” – UPFEST 2018

From Friday the 27th of July to Sunday the 30th of  July I spent 3 full days swaying 50 ft up in the air in the wind and rain on a Scissor lift at Europe’s largest street art and graffiti festival UPFEST 2018 in Bristol featuring more than 400 artists dotted around the streets of Bedminster visited by over 50,000 members of the public.

Despite the torrential rain and heavy winds, it was great fun making this mural come to life. I haven’t missed an Upfest event since its conception back in 2008 and this is my largest one to date. You can find some of my previous walls including one with My Dog Sighshere on my site.

The finished mural can be found at Red Point Climbing Centre Bristol

Video by the incredible Nick Sneath featuring music by my hero and friend DJ Food. Spray paint supplied by Kobra Paint.

Thank you to all the wonderful people who came to visit us throughout the event!
