Fredagen den 18 juni avtäcks väggen där vi gett The Creamy Two's fria händer att lämna sitt avtryck. Resultatet kan vi bara gissa oss till, men liknar det något de gjort tidigare kan vi förvänta oss en regnbågsfärgad tripp bland muskler, kristaller och skeva djurhybrider. Som kanske är lite gulliga ändå.

The Creamy Two's är Hanna Andersson och Joakim Ojanen. De bor och skapar tillsammans i Stockholm. Hanna är nyexaminerad från Beckmans och Joakim läser för närvarande vid Konstfack.

1 day silk screen workshop

2010-05-24T12:08:00.000-07:00

Me and Hanna got visitors from the land far away, England!
Rachel from Clinic (www.clinicpresents.com) and Joe Prendergast (http://www.gepettosilver.blogspot.com).
To keep us busy we desided to make som screen prints, due to the short time we had we came up with a system to make the original for the print.
All four took a paper each and started to draw, after 5 minutes we swopped paper and did this so everyone drawed on every paper. Then we printed each drawing in one colour on top of each other so we got this nice four colour prints!!!

Thank you for this time!

The Billboard
Grand opening 10th April 12.00 at Tensta Konsthall
Tensta konsthall is proud to present The Billboard a new site for the presentation of work and an annual contest for young artists, designers and architects, curated by Maria Gromova and project managed by Egil Donnér.

The Billboard is a wall space adjacent to the main entrance to the art centre. A public space where young creatives from 11 of Sweden’s leading art and design schools have been invited to submit their ideas. All submitted works needed to have a direct relationship with Tensta and the final selection was made by Maria Gromova, Egil Donnér and Tensta Konsthall. The works include a social mapping of the local area, arranged photographs that create a fiction of the home and local Tensta resident Joakim Ojanen’s dramatic illustrations.
