G’day! My name is Ben and I’m the newest young talent to join the Dolly Rogers band of creatives. I’ve just migrated to Amsterdam from Paris after completing my Masters degree at Sorbonne. My speciality is graphic design and web development…and I also like to perform one or two ukulele cowboy tunes around the camp fire at nightfall. I also love to draw comics strips, you can check out my portfolio here.

In French art schools there are widespread rumours about Amsterdam being a dynamic, fresh and interesting city for anyone who loves “design and culture” (translation: parties and excessive over-indulgence). I needed to confirm this hearsay for myself. It’s been a few weeks since my arrival and I’ve already walked for hours along the canals, mainly in my bold quest to find a room. I’ve seen a few exhibitions like the current ‘Pretty Much Everything Else” at Foam. I’ve quickly learned to keep out of the way of the crazy cyclists, and by the way I’m now one of them, so bewaaare… I have the feeling that it’s going to be great indeed!
