By two kaapi and a bit of art. Wednesday, December 3, 2014. Rich Door- Poor Door. As one lane takes you through canvases of beautiful art, another hits you with a whiff of warm Bengali spices, and you walk down to marvel at a massive chimney of an old brewery or you wander away losing yourself in alleyways of street boutiques and vintage markets. What more would you want? Aldgate East, Brick Lane, Whitechapel. A local newspaper I picked up from the Freedom Bookstore. Apparently developers are 'someti...

Totally digging the assignments which involve a lot of cut-pasting, photography. and never thought I would get to work on one- A letterpress! I realise I had lost the joy in small things.for example choosing a font for a project, was the biggest bore and a chore! Labels: #ual #centralsaintmartins #shortcourses #typographysummer. Candl...

By two kaapi and a bit of art. Tuesday, March 17, 2015. East London: Shoreditch and Bricklane are some places fromm where I derive my greatest inspirations. The street art- the best in London is so fresh, current and deliciously bizarre. It's ever- changing, and in every visit I see new work that didn't exist before. One piece of work I absolutely couldn't get out of my mind, were the paintings of Alexis Diaz. The weird- steam-punk lovecraft-ian creatures are those you cannot 'unsee'. Lorna: the wise half.

http://kaapiandart.blogspot.com/2014/10/haunting-walks.html
By two kaapi and a bit of art. Saturday, October 4, 2014. I had never been to a cemetery. On a recent visit to Scotland, we were walking down the Royal mile, and I was somehow drawn towards the Cannongate Kirkyard. On a hillock, overlooking the city, it felt like a spot of untouched beauty, that endured the passing of time and the world that grew around, and stood it's ground, imposing. A statue and fountain have been erected to commemorate him, 'the most loyal dog in Scotland'. View my complete profile.

It was called ' Posters of Protest'. A collection of posters from the last 100 years. I am still trying to articulate how and why, they still have that powerful magnetic effect that draws you towards them, mildly hypnotic? What was it about the design, that makes every poster still look fresh? The cut- colour, the silhouettes?
