This colourful set of photographs reveals the beauty of two models, the American Guinevere van Seenus and the Russian Elena Sudakova. The shoot was made for Vogue UK.

     I got a call from paul mittleman from stussy in 06, he asked me to produce a series of ads based on my collage art work that i was doing at the time(i couldn’t use a computer)-I was asked to produce a sereis of ads for their upcoming campaign. I was asked to produce ten pieces  of artwork  in a time span of 2 months (this was all  starting from blank). 

The whole set of images was based on my bike ride thro east new york and over the williamsburg bridge into town. Using white space i dropped my images onto the paper-overlapping textures ,etc ,finally after 2 solid months i had 10 pieces made -the images made are now resting in folders under my bed waiting to be hung in a gallery.It would be quite refreshing to see by hand work in a gallery in these days of computer heavy images. Producing this type of work is so basic and raw ,but at the same time the images produced are timeless-To make collages ,you will need a travel pass,kinkos card,books from  the strand book shop or where ever else you can find them and imagination. The medium used is collage .

I was photographing in this year Time Tunnel party here in Oulu. It was a great party like always.

Check out the photos from my flickr account.

David Gensler and myself started this project last year in summer of 2008.  The idea came from an Urb Magazine feature we were doing.  Half way through the project we realized that this concept was bigger than a spot  in a magazine… We decided to embark on this crazy idea of trying to photograph all the creative types that make up New York City.

I must have cycled, camera in- tow, like a demon, across all bridges and boroughs.  It was hot as hell. But definitely worth it!  By doing this project, I was able to meet many talented folk that live in New York and I saw some cool and fantastic art.

We are still going strong and will continue to do so until we reach 1000 portraits (dont ask why the number ~ it just sounds magical.)  I  see this project lasting 5 years, or even longer — really getting as many people as possible… showing the whole spectrum.

Skateboard and apparel artwork for Artsprojekt. I worked on this during some down time awhile back. As the first post here, I felt the subject was appropriate to share. Big things to come. Cheers.
