We are over the moon with the news that our work for WeTransfer was selected as an Official Webby Honoree for the Best Visual Design – Function. Listed alongside Behance, Microsoft’s Bing and Nike+, it’s a huge achievement considering it was launched only four months ago.

Anybody that knows me knows that I’m one competitive guy. Everything I do I have to be the best or at least beat my mates at it. So the idea of Secret Wars was right up my alley, and apparently also for the hundred or so people that crammed into the Sid Lee Collective Gallery space for the first of three events. Round one was Amsterdam Vs. Cardiff with the home team drawing (sorry, but I had too) first blood. See you at the next event on Friday 23 April!
PS. These pics were stolen from Kriss Créol’s blog. Thanks mate!
On friday night YOUR:OWN gallery opened it’s doors for the first time with a great show from Dutch artist Gijs Kast. His exhibition simply titled ‘SHOW’ sees portraits of people he encountered at various events through-out the Netherlands and Belgium, like a dog show and a ‘strongest’ man contest in Antwerp. With his raw and confronting portrayals he has won the Dutch Design Award in 2009 for Best Illustration. The exhibition is only up until 7 April so make sure you check it out.

A couple of months ago I attended an opening at the new Streetlab project space at Meneer De Witte and was impressed by the paintings of UK artist Joe Holbrook. So when I heard that he was having a solo exhibition at Sid Lee Collective I was there in a flash. Tender ‘N Tasty is a collection of eight new paintings, four drawings and the coolest rubbish bin I have ever seen. It closes 31 March so get yourself down there now!
