The Sound Of Stenciling
The making of a stencil painting.
I have been stenciling since 2003 and I thought it was about time I gave people a little insight into how I work. Cutting stencils isn’t a spectacle, it’s done in solitude and so I think a lot of my friends, artist or not, will find this interesting.
The painting featured in the video is titled ‘And I’m Not Going To Take This Anymore’. Photos and more details about the piece can be found at pahnl.co.uk/store/anymore.php
A more affordable screen print of this piece will be available soon and if you want to be the first to know of it’s release, you can sign up to the carrier pigeon list at pahnl.co.uk/contact.php

Brazilian Artist Makes Art With Marijuana Smoke
A Brazilian painter is making an art out of smoking pot.
At his studio in Rio de Janeiro on Monday, Fernando de la Rocque (pronounced hockey) took a deep drag on a marijuana joint and blew onto a stencil overlaying paper. After several puffs an image began to appear – a golden-hued version of “Ecstasy of Saint Teresa” by Italian sculptor Giovanni Lorenzo.
Smoking marijuana is illegal in Brazil, but some of Rocque’s pot-stained prints are selling for $2,500 each. A show featuring the work opened last week at an alternative gallery in Rio’s stylish Ipanema neighborhood.
The 32-year-old Rocque says he stumbled on his toking technique in 2009.
It takes him a week to do a single print — blowing about five joints of smoke onto a paper daily.

Sablon promotional, similar cu ACESTA, doar ca a fost facut cu o vopsea mai speciala (si nu prin curatare), gasit pe langa Cinema Pro, pentru lansarea filmului The Dark Knight Rises.
UPDATE: Sablonul a fost realizat prin curatare cu apa sub presiune. Thanks Bogdan!

Typopassage TypeSpace 2012
Typopassage Timisoara is a micro museum located in a public space, dedicated to graphic design and the art of shaping letters. It’s the first international extension of Typopassage Vienna initiated by the genius Ovidiu Hrin and Bauer Konzept & design.
In 2011, TPTM launched the Typ’O'wall – a 28 sq. meters graffiti covering the entire wall of the passage, with concept of the artwork related to typography. Thus, last year’s subject “TypeFace”, was brought to life thanks to my friend “Jones”.
Now, in 2012, I was the lucky one.
Commissioned to rethink and paint the wall by the nature of it’s subject, “TypeSpace”, I’ve tried to do my best.
Hard work. It was all about putting my balls at work.

Thanks for all the wise words & this opportunity Ovidiu Hrin and all Synopsis Media staff, Stefan Lucut, Caius Mersa, D’Arc, Ovidiu Carabet, U-Man and all the ones that appreciated my work and didn’t tried to destroy it.

Here Comes The Neighbourhood
HERE COMES THE NEIGHBORHOOD is a Short-Form Docuseries exploring the power of Public Art and innovation to uplift and revitalize urban communities. The Pilot Season revolves around the Arts District of Wynwood Miami, featuring an array of internationally acclaimed and locally respected Street Artists, Graffiti Writers and Muralists.
In 2009, Urban Visionary and Placemaker Tony Goldman partnered with Jeffrey Deitch (Deitch Projects Soho and now director of MoCa Los Angeles) to create the Wynwood Walls.What began with a series of parking lots, loading docks, and drab rundown factory buildings, became a curation of high caliber murals from Futura, Shepard Fairey, OS Gemeos, Kenny Scharf and others. The Walls opened for Art Basel 2009, and now two years later the collection has expanded to include over thirty artists from around the world, becoming a “Town Center” in a district that has grown into one of the largest concentrations of commissioned murals in the World.
This year Artists, many of whom have not shown work in the United States before, were selected by Tony Goldman, Goldman Projects Arts Manager Meghan Coleman and Art Consultant Medvin Sobio of the Visual Arts Collective Viejas Del Mercado. 33third Los Angeles, Mid City Arts, and Montana Cans worked together to provide paint for the project’s ambitious expansion.
HERE COMES THE NEIGHBORHOOD explores a unique juncture in history as a new community emerges and evolves. A progressive urban revitalization campaign is examined in the first person, using this year’s new Artists and their commissions as a lens to explore a neighborhood in transition. The Series is framed by colorful overview and concluding episodes, providing the scope of past, present and future. Each episode is accented by images from legendary Documentary Photographer Martha Cooper, who has been capturing The Walls since they began in 2009. Her Photographs will also appear in a Special Edition Art Book “The Wynwood Walls and Doors” set to be released at Art
Basel 2011.
