Billboard

Another day at the college and it's good to see how well the studio's are being turned into an exhibition space. We patched up some more walls and started to paint all of them.

After having done enough painting I decided to give my billboard construction a go and I was surprised about how quick it went. It isn't going to be perfectly flat but I am quit happy with the result so far. I was thinking about the fact that imperfections are always important in my work but that it becomes more difficult to look at them when you get better at what you do. Especially with all the screenprinting I have been doing all year long it's hard to see imperfections while that is actually what I enjoyed at the first place. It reminds me of blowing glass for the first time. When you start blowing glass you get al sorts of weird lumpy cups but once you know how to make a cup it's pretty much impossible to create one of those weird lumpy onces again.

I have to say a thank you to Gregor, Kimberly, Yao Lung, Tomoko and Iain for helping me with the billboard when I needed an extra pair of hands (or feet).
