back to basics

By Akkie Bosje behind the scenes

A little fun project on show today. I’ve gladly participated in a print-workshop ‘so you think you can print’ initiated by nieuweklasse*. It was a bit of trip down memorylane but it sure was a nice interruption of all the web-oriëntated work of today’s life. It’s always kind of great to work with the real colourstuff. And last but not least it was an excellent opportunity to give ‘life’ to my first hero.

when in Rome…

By Akkie Bosje behind the scenes

… do as the Romans do. This door at the Kemistry Gallery in London is the entrance to the exhibition ‘How to say the most with the least’. Always a challenge for everyone in visual communications. The show is based on a workshop by Mesa & Cadeira and Anthony Burrill. I like this new short phrase as an equivalent of the familiar ‘Rome’ quote.

let’s go

By Akkie Bosje behind the scenes

Hi, welcome in my space, my world. Thought this poem suits this first step really well. A diary of a journey along my work; my thinking; my heroes – with their inspiration and wisdom; found footage – from the web and my memory box; some musings and a lot of joie de vivre. Have fun here!

[translation]
Lets go travel together,
travel you and me,
me and you,
your hand in my hand,
our toes at a nice row,
feet abreast,
Are you coming?
One step and we are on our way.

Or are you
not allowed so far from home?
Well, then we ask
the journey to come to us.
Hand in hand,
we go to every land
even to the sun
– we travel in our dreams
from ‘Op reis’ by Sjoerd Kuyper
