WORKSHOP: WISH YOU WERE HERE




If you think you can't draw, short of ideas, but dying to make your own artwork and get them produced with no hassle..well, we think...

the Wish You Were Here Workshop might be your thing!

No skill needed, leave alone talent. If you can hold a scissor, move a brush, and try to not eat the glue - then you are definitely qualified.

In this workshop we will be having fun creating artwork using mixed media which basically means you can do anything two dimensional using whatever materials you like. Watercolour, pen, coffee stain, layers of collage, you name it.

Each participant will work on 3 piece of different real size postcard sheets and choose the best two to be processed and printed. Final sets of 3 will be sent to given address in 1-2 weeks time. Who does not enjoy receiving pretty things in real life mailbox?

We will be sharing ideas, adding twists and collaborating, so don't worry if you are afraid that you will be clueless. There'll be no time for that!

So if you are into postcard, have no idea but somehow excited reading this, you are most welcome to join this intimate workshop at Bollu. THIS SATURDAY. There is only five seats available because we like to keep the gang small and the snack portion bigger (we keep our priorities straight)

DETAILS:

Date        : Saturday, 28th of February 2015
Time       : 2pm - 6pm
Address  : Jalan Kemang 1a no 29a, behind Codefin and next to Wimo shoe store.
Materials : Bring your own watercolour or/and acrylic set, but other than that we will provide the materials!

Workshop fee: IDR 150,000

The Neighbourhood Collection







Sometimes the best part of travelling isn't always about the seven wonders. In fact many times it's about the subtle charm of the daily rhythmic in each city or places we go. How people uniquely developed and customised their way of living as a respond to the environment. 

While travelling does not necessarily means going to far exotic places with clear blue sky but it can be as simple as an "ojek" ride (motorbike cab) where the driver will dive in to secret alleys in order to cut the traffic here in Jakarta. Despite the chaotic arrangement, these tiny roads personally preserve more sincere vibration compare to the overshadowing concrete jungle. 

Nevertheless, from the green paddy field to the secret alleys or to the city that never sleeps, it's always good to just sit and stare and observe how life goes on there. Maybe a couple of pictures as well.

The Sub Rosa Collection




For many years my dad have been painting roses that I wonder why as a child: isn't there anything else to draw out there? Until I found this book, which is of course his, and I kid you not: it's in the genes. I got obsessed by their lines and colours from the very first page.

Sub Rosa is a latin phrase means "under the rose"and it's an indication for secrecy. Intrigued by the idea of how we as human having the tendency to abuse the idea of beauty for the sake of camouflaging our flaw. Which maybe isn't in the first place.
