Billboard up in Ghent! 🖤🌷Thanks to 019 and Design Museum Gent. On view until October 1, 2020 in Drabstraat, Ghent (Belgium).
Title of my work: Location does not matter.
This pattern consists of several illustrations of houses based on some of my drawings when I was a child. As a symbol of the many places where I have lived, they were strongly compressed to emphasize the full feeling. The whole becomes very abstract from a distance, almost a haze - the depth disappears, just as memories of the details of the houses gradually disappear and only an atmosphere remains. 🌬
This billboard is a collaboration between Design museum Gent and 019. It functions as an alternative exhibition platform for (graphic) designers. A leftover from the Museum Of Moving Practice project that happened between the 18th of May and the 17th of September 2017, where 019 temporary occupied a part of the museum. This billboard is a copy of the Billboard Series framework that has been hanging at 019 since September 2015. (A project by Artlead, All Things Contemporary Vzw & 019)
Each billboard stays up for two months.
The designers are selected by 019.
