Boicut: Nite-in

October 14, 2010Austrian Illustrator and Graphic Designer, Boicut will be having a solo show featuring all his latest works. Check out some of his old stuff at www.boicut.com

I ALWAYS USED TO DRAW IN SKETCH BOOKS. SOME YEARS AGO I STUMBLED OVER
DESIGNER TOYS WHILE SEARCHING FOR A CHRISTMAS PRESENT.I WAS FASCINATED
SEEING ILLUSTRATION APPLIED TO THIS 3D-TOYS. SOME WEEKS LATER I DID MY FIRST
DIY CUSTOM TOY BUT I WANTED TO EXPAND IN ALSO CUSTOMIZING OTHER THINGS.
AT THIS EXHIBITION I WILL FOCUS ON CUSTOMIZED DAILY SUNDRIES LIKE SKATE-
BOARDS AND SPRAYCANS BUT ALSO RARE STUFF LIKE A WATER HEATER, A DESK,
CUPBOARD AND THINGS LIKE THIS.
I ALWAYS GO THROUGH THE SAME PROCESS: FIRST FINDING AN OBJECT, WHITENING IT,
THINK ABOUT A CONCEPT, CHOOSE ONE COLOR BESIDE WHITE AND BLACK AND BEGIN
TO DRAW.
FOR ME ITS IMPORTANT HAVING AT LEAST A SMALL CONCEPT WHAT TO DRAW. I ALSO
LIKE TO ADD SOME TINY HIDDEN FUNNY THINGS WHICH YOU MAYBE WONT RECOGNIZE
AT FIRST SIGHT.
ITS ALWAYS A BIG CHALLENGE STANDING IN FRONT OF THE NEXT WHITE THING.
BESIDE THE POINT OF EXPERIMENTING WITH NEW MATERIALS AND 3D CANVASES I
SEE MY STUFF AS A CONTRAST TO MASS PRODUCTS. ALL MY STUFF IS HANDMADE
AND WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SHIRTS AND PRINTS LIMITED TO THE NUMBER OF 1.
