This is
a video about the sticker going around Berlin.

I think it's clever!
And fun!

Christmas!!


DANIEL BJUGÅRD PHOTOETCHED XMAS CARD- 12.21.10


As the christmas are very soon,
there are many kinds of
christmas card.

And I found a interest one.




This is made with a
0.2mm hardened steel
and collaborated with Mikroponent AB.




It stands like a tree and
I like that it has a two messages,
'merry christmas'
and
'happy new year.' :)




Art of Glass


Art of Glass: Inside the Studio ofOakland Glass Artist Jonah Ward

I found a interesting work from the web.
He is an artist working
with a wood and a glass.




It was very interesting that
he was not just working only with wood
or only a glass work.




When he pour a hot glass on the wood
and make a pattern with it,
the wood burns
and it makes a very
unique style.

Clever Poster



I've found
a very clever poster
about the oil spill.

'Using a water-soluble ink, we created these "leaking" posters for the Dogwood Initiative's No Tankers project, which endeavours to keep oil tankers out of BC's coastal waters.'

The design companies



In PPD class the tutor asked us to choose
five design companies
where we want to work.

For me,
the first company is named
TBWA
which is based on Paris.
The advertising of
the 'Absolut Vodka'
was the first one that I saw their work.
Since this vodka was made, TBWA was keep making an advertising of it.
And I really love the series of 'Absolut Vodka's advertising.
Always has a same concept.
Two words which starts with 'Absolut.'
And the shape of the bottle which is a symbol of this product.





And this company has many clients who wants an advertising,
I have many interest in advertising so I want to work in here
and work for the vodka and other clients like pepsi.

Second is
Kyouei Design
which is based in Japan.




i saw a waterclock made from here, and this was really interesting.
This company makes a product but
I really like this company's design.
It is really clean and unique and they have their own style.
If I can work in this company, I want to watch and share
the ideas with them.

Third one is
CHI&Partners.
I saw this advertising.
And this was really good image.
The best one is the little girl with her swimwear, and the colours in this image is
really relaxed like saturday.





And the forth one is
M&C Saatchi London.
I saw a poster in the underground
and this was really shocking.
At first I thought it was just a
picture of a person and have a interesting text
but when I saw this for few seconds more,
I realised this was actually a picture of a dead person.
It was really shocking.
But I thought this is really brilliant idea.
I love it.
Because, this has message needs a strong shocking image so
I think this is a good piece.




And the last company is
New York Magazine.



I like this cover work so I just choose this company,
but actually I couldn't find more company where I want to work.
Actually, most of the work which I like is a work from artists, not from an agency,
but I think I could search and when I get to know more agencies,
I can find lots of more good agencies where I want to work.

Anish Kapoor




It was soooo gooood weather to go out today :)
So I went to Hyde Park and walked through it.

At Serpentine gallery, there was an exhibition of Anish Kapoor's work.
It called 'TURNING THE WORLD UPSIDE DOWN'.
Actually, in the gallery there was Klara Liden's work and Anish's work were
exhibited in Hyde park.
There were four works and all of them were near by Serpentine gallery.
As it was really good weather, I enjoyed walking around Hyde park and looking his work getting closer with peoples.





There were two 'sky mirror' and 'c-curve' and 'non-object'.



And my best was 'c-curve'.

If you see that at outside, it looks normal but if you go around and look inside you can see all of the world in upside down.
And almost all of the ages of the people really enjoyed this mirror.
Babies and parents and couples and grandparents were smiling and looking around that object.

It is until 13 march 2011 and Klara Liden's show is until 7 November.
If you have a chance, I recommend to walk around and enjoy those objects :)

The Circus



In Paul's class, we went to 'THE MUSEUM OF EVERYTHING', where is near at Chalk farm station.

This is a third exhibition they did, and this time they had many interest things.
Unfortunately, we were not allowed to take a photo in there so I don't have any picture of it. :(

They had many pieces of circus and discovered art and artefacts which belongs to Peter Blake.

When I went through the door, it was full tension of the circus. It was like I actually walked through in the circus tent, with all red and blue and white colours and little bit dark area with only some of lights and the mirrors which makes you look fat and funny :)
And after that, I met with a very unique people on some photographs. There were some tom thumbs and giant people and a woman who has a beard which name was Annie Jones, etc.
It was so unique and I really wished that I want to go and see that circus!

And the other thing really interested to me was on upstairs.
Whole of the room was full of animals.
There were a tiny dog which is only 16in, and a lamb with to head and a pig with only three legs and some rats who were acting like a human.. At first I thought these are not real, it was made by someone, but it wasn't! All of the animals was made by an actual living creature.
The lamb with two head was an actual A LAMB WITH A TWO HEAD!
It was so incredible and actually creepy.
But the best one was the rats whom were boxing.
This was so dynamic and all of their poses and facial expressions were so real!

At the first time, as the gallery was small, I thought it will not take time to see it, but I was there and reading all of the descriptions and looking all of the details of the objects.

It was so unique and creepy but I kind of like it.
And after this visit, I really want find and visit another small exhibitions.

An interesting class~~

Today, I had a class called 'narrative'.
It was really interesting to me.
And also it was fun but actually it was quite difficult for me.
Working only with an image is more easier
than a collaboration with a text and image.
Because English is not my first language, I wanted to made something funny stuffs
but it was hard to make someone laugh with a text, so just made things seems normal..

But it was really good to look over other people's works.
There were many brilliant things and some works which makes me laugh.

And I thought that it's very important to practice to work with texts and images together.
This can make lots of fun and brilliant works
and I think it is more effective to show my thought than using only an image.

....



I went to a bookstore in Tottenham court yesterday and saw many art books.

It was really good time to see my favorite artist's book.
Like Gustav Klimt, Magritte, Edward Hopper, etc.

And I'd found some works that I want to try someday.



And I saw one book named 'I am plastic too'. This cover came very strong to me. It looks like the figure is actually saying with a strong voice and with a little bit of anger, that he is a plastic, too. It was quite funny to me.

EXPLAINING THE KINDLE TO CHARLES DICKENS



This is a amazing small book!!








“I made the book start to finish over five days, and it took about 35 hours to make I reckon. It was pretty painstaking cutting out all the gaps in the book itself, and making the books to go inside. They’re all bound like actual books, so as I waited for them to glue and dry I would design the covers for them. All the covers are copies of real book covers. They include many of Dickens’s novels, his favorite childhood books, and some of my own.”

My First post




Hi~ This is my first time to have my own blog..

But I'll do my best and keep updating my own thought and feelings.

And first, sorry about my poor english.. I know I'm not good but.. I'll try to be better :)









This is the photo that I took at LCC,
and I liked this because of the lines of the chair legs,
and also all of the colours are monochrome; like black, silver and grey.
But the only one chair has a red coloured legs.
It looks it is different from others but actually it is a same chair legs like others.
And also the front side of this image is strongly dark colour but at the back side
there is a bright red colour so, I just liked how that red colour could captured my
eyes.
