Hope Box Angels @ MOMA / Zagreb

After our stay in Berlin we went straight to Zagreb/HR. Hope Box set up a wall painting project at the Museum Of Modern Art (still under construction) in Zagreb. Heaven and Hell. Together with the YCP gang we painted this clash of our characters there. Evil vs Good. Shout outs to all the good guys: Lunar / Angel / Morka / Lortek / Zets / Zeds and Rienke!
The whole thing also here.

Pictoplasma Character Walk @ F.I.T. / Berlin

The London Police and me painted the F.I.T. art space for the Pictoplasma Character Walk in Berlin. This building is a former gas station and so we made our characters pumping colours through that place instead of gas. There is also a small gallery space inside showing some original artwork on canvases there. Thanx to all people from Pictoplasma for making this happen and giving us good times and party. Also thanx to Dida from F.I.T. for bringing us constantly bottles of world's best beer "Tegernseer Hell". And cheers to Just for his work-in-progress photo report here.
