SHOW 2012 ANTWERP ACADEMY

SHOW 2012 . Antwerp Fashion Department from Artesis Hogeschool Antwerpen on Vimeo.
This weekend was the 3 day show from my former school and I can say the level and the quality of the school still the same.
Means I'm proud of the students really great work and always fun to watch.
Was just yesterday when I was helping last minute issues with my friends collections,time goes so fast.
I love my school.

I MAKE STUFF

So,yeah I studied Ceramics BA and have 2 Master's in Arts....
But I wouldn't call myself an artist, I never really trust ,care or give a shit about a title.
And call myself an artist is just something I WILL NEVER DO.
But,I cannot deny who I am.
I grew up in an artistic family, a very independent artistic school and I graduated with honours from one of the oldest Academies in the world (350 years ,this year)....
I love to draw and make things in clay ,plaster ,porcelain,wood,you name it.
This photos are from friends of mine studios and I wish I had more photos,makes me feel so retarded that I don't have more of it,my friends are the most talented bitches you will ever meet.
I might start looking for photos of my dad's studio as well,because is an important part of me,when I grew up his studio was like wonderland to me.I will never forget the smell of oil painting ,white spirit and turpentine.
TODAY: I  LOVE ART STUDIOS.

Heaven Tanudiredja A/W 20012/2013

I will never get tired of saying that my friends are the most talented persons walking this world.
And Heaven Tanudiredja isn't the exception each collection gets better and more beautiful,small beads aligned carefully make shape to his bold necklaces.

PORCELAIN CACTUS

Blast from the past...This is something i did when I was doing my ceramics bachelor degree at the Antwerp Academy ,this is one of my favourite pieces from those times,even if I didn't have a good grade with this....I was supposed to make a functional vase from a press plaster mould....Guess what this doesn't look very functional..
