Backstage Stories: Kriskras

The flowers, the wild appeal just felt like the right setting for the show.

This was the second time showing at the Jan van Eyck and this made it easier than the first time. I had written the script for the day a year before and with some tweaking I applied this to this year.

A lot of models where excited to help again. This year I really wanted to capture the backstage looks right before the show. So we put up a paper rol and all models where portrayed by Mike.

As last year’s music was such a succes I asked Daniel van Loenen to create a soundtrack for the show. His live performance gave so much color to the presentation.

The location for last show was the staircase and the open space inside the building.

This year I wanted to present my work in the garden. The Jan van Eyck garden is a beautiful space and every time I am printing in the lab I look out into the garden. The flowers, the wild appeal just felt like the right setting for the show. Luckily the weather worked along and it was a beautiful sunny moment during the presentation.
