In May 2008 I went to Berlin on a commission to create a series of
6 wall panels for the nightclub CRUSH (also known as COOKIES),
on Behrentsr in the Mitte area of Berlin.
It was for a night on the bank holiday weekend of the 11th of May
featuring DJ PRINS THOMAS.
Each of the six panels was approximately 10 feet (3 meters) high,
and 5 feet (1.5 meters) across. They were made from a wood blend
coated with shiny white plastic. I used Staedtler marker pens with
black ink to draw the images, and I had several people helping me
to fill in the larger areas of black. We had four days to complete the
project before opening night.
The designs I made used photos from the party photo website
NEON SLEEP as a source, which I then cut up and redesigned.
My work was also used for the promotional flyers and posters for the
night. The drawings are from a commission I did in '07, using photos
from a party in London.
