Escher’s Tesseract

Making of “Escher’s Tesseract” portrays a Tesseract existing in four dimensions. It draws inspiration from Escher’s “Belvedere”, showing a figure holding a 3D variant of the Necker cube and being mesmerised by its edges and corners intertwining in an impossible manner.  The mural also conveys the essence of de Binckhorst, a hotbed for innovation and entrepreneurship where it was created.The Tesseract reflects the area’s versatility and dynamic character.   The mural can be viewed from 3 different perspectives changing in shape from every angle to enhance the reminiscence of a tesseract.  Teamed up with @streetartprojectsnl to make this commission by @gemeentedenhaag made possible by the entrepreneurs of de Binckhorst: Unknowngroup, @Secrid, @renewi_official, Sunnyway BV @boelsrental, Stichting Haags industrieel Erfgoed and @deboerautolak @montanacans , Video made by Mafalda Madeira music by Jonathan Renoux

The Auguries

Final images of the triptych in Hannover.
This project that started in September as part of the @hola_utopia_festival and evolved into 3 murals.

The future was the inspiration for these murals. How abstract would our world look to a caveman put in this time. Imagine what it would be like to travel the same distance into the future. The murals represent portals into the future. A glance into another reality wich we are moving towards with tremendous speed. An abstract, calculated, digital world with no right or wrong only 0 or 1, objective, based on numbers and fact but for now still fiction on the wall.

Thanks to @hanova.immobilien for making your walls available. Thanks Artie Ilsemann for arranging the back end of the project. Thanks @jascha.mueller who collaborated big time on the sketch and production of the mural and @zike_monkeysquad who was the driving force on the Baustelle and materials from @mtngermany Looking forward to further collaboration with this great team!

Close to finishing up in Hannover.
This project that started in September as part of the @hola_utopia_festival and evolved into a triptych after @hanova.immobilien liked the fist mural and requested a second and a third. The project could not have been possible without: Artie Ilsemann who took the responsibility of arranging the back end of the project, @jascha.mueller who contributed to the sketch and production of the mural, @zike_monkeysquad who was the driving force on the Baustelle and materials from @mtngermany Looking forward to further collaboration with new made German friends and colleages.

Transformational Innovation

Nijmegen a city known for its long history which dates back more than
2000 years. Partly due to its favorable geographical position. Situated on the south bank of the Waal, a branch of the Rhine in the region of the ‘Great Rivers and near the border of Germany. It has a long history of trade and academic achievements. Resulting in the formation of institutes like “Radboud University” and “Novio Tech Campus” Which has in its turn made Nijmegen a hot spot for innovations in health and tech.
We can achieve great wonders. By predicting patterns in behavior of our bodies through computers. By replacing vital organs with mechanical parts. By creating medicine which heals the most complicated diseases. If we wish even produce clones at our demand. All this designing of our vessels and its surroundings what will it lead to in the distant future. Will there be a time where our veins are replaced by cables, our eyes with camera lenses and our thoughts on display through screens because our data is optimized though the flow of the correct algorithms?

Made for @thebigdrawnijmegen on @kock_bril_shop
Thank you for the great hospitality! Felt really welcome during the creation of the mural.

Geef me de ruimte

During the end of 2020 we were approached by @housseinbouziane and @jhmfvbilsen from @madebyrotterdam.

Madeby is working on a strong diverse and multidisciplinair art and culture climate which represents Rotterdam society.

They approached us to contribute on the project www.geefmederuimte.nl (give me some space) This project uses the public space to communicate a positive message during those hard corona times. The object can now be observed as a time monument. A reminder of our will to be connected during hard times. The cube stands out among the surrounding architecture thus making it a recognisable meeting spot.

We decided to make a mural about connection. During the pandemic connection is a more important subject than ever. We want to connect but can’t. The classic handshake is a symbol of connection. The will to touch each other is big. We should support each other during those unstable times. Keep your distance but stay in touch!
We made the last icon a fistbump a well used way of greeting during covid times but also one that is celebrated in street culture.

“Geef me de ruimte” is supported by @rotterdam_makeithappen .
