The Soul Series

A sneak peek at the latest painting series I'm currently working on and in which I hope to exhibit in a future solo exhibition :-)

"Inspired by our unique idols who have departed the earth and whose souls will live on forever.."

We're All Millionaires

"We’re All Millionaires" is a group show of contemporary artworks that are to be sold for 1 Million Rupiah. The exhibition concept aims to poke fun at the cultural misconceptions of the term “millionaire”, and address the oddities of art economics and ownership status.

Self & Reality

Published advertising design for the opening of LINGGARseni in Jakarta with an exhibition of 6 Indonesian artists.

North Sydney kid

Let’s put it simply, maps can often be confusing for some people. So for a brief of making map of North Sydney, I wanted to create something that would be very easy to understand. Children produce simplistic drawings, which is why I decided to borrow their approach to drawing as an inspiration for this map.

PSYCHELOGIE

This logo was made for a major project I created during my second year of Communication Design at Billy Blue. It is an event that runs inside a tent in which counselors work free-of-charge to help people deal with their personal problems and talk about their mental health in general.

LOQU

This invitation was made for the launching of LOQU, which is a project created by Jimmy Fridsen. It is an organisation that promotes and distributes the new universal sign language for the hearing impaired.

Africa

Models and well-known celebrities have become heroes of the publication world nowadays. As a result, magazines wouldn’t seem appealing enough without having them on the covers. So I created a brief for myself in which I had to make an illustration that would have the same impact and appeal to appear successfully on the cover of a well-known fashion magazine Vogue.

MYND

This publication is handed out to people that come to the PSYCHELOGIE event to inform them of the latest life trends and stories of people in the world today. Images of people used in the booklet are mostly close-ups as they were chosen intentionally to get a sense of closeness to the human core.

Hidden heart

It was an emotionally-driven photography session that led me to make this particular brief for myself. I used natural lighting for the photograph to get a more natural feel and it shows really well on the textures of the scarf and the teddy bear in the background. The packaging of the CD is made out of paper material and is designed as a flip-open booklet. The CD placed inside can easily be rolled out from the middle opening of the packaging.

Viva Pedro

Pedro Almodovar’s movies are very well-known for their bold and strong colours so I based my design for this brief around that. The DVDs come in a fold-out packaging and a movie poster is also included as a special bonus.

Exploration is only hands away

Having David Carson as the main subject for this brief was very exciting for me as he is a very experimental typographer who’s not afraid to break the rules. Research was the most crucial factor since I had to come up with a visual work for a poster that represents his aesthetics to design and typography while at the same time using my own personal design style.

Hair of the Dog

Hair of the Dog is a brand for beer, so colour was a big issue during the designing process. I wanted the product to have a masculine feel but at the same time cool enough to appeal to the female consumers. The logo also needed to be unique and memorable, so I created a bold line work of a dog with 2 heads with an equally bold typeface for the branding.

Mon(st)a Lisa

This is one of my favourite paintings. I was just trying to interpret the Mona Lisa in my own way.
