so good...



This song is by Fever Ray - 'When I Grow Up'. I love it, love it, love it, and i love the video aswell!
I especially like the bit when she sings ...

I put my soul in what I do
Last night I drew a funny man
with dark eyes and a hanging tongue
It goes way bad, I never liked a sad look
From someone who wants to be loved by you

Beautiful

I saw this today and I thought 'cute' they were growing up on a concrete wall and just lighting up the space. Sometimes I really miss the being closer to the nature here in London.

Gigantic leaves!!


On our way from the Tate Britain Museum we found a freakishly huuuge leave. It was a nice sign of autumn being here...

Details of Germany...

I had a really great time in Munich where I went to visit my lovely lovely friend for a few days. Unfortunately, I forgot to charge the battery to the camera so I was only able to take some shots the first days.












Veronica Maggio - Gammal Sång

She's one of my favourites!

NSS Poster Competition

My poster was shortlisted and one of the 7 I think to be considered to front the NSS 2009 marketing campaign. I didn't win, but I'm happy I was one of the few that was shortlisted and I am really happy with my design. And thank you to everyone who voted for me!!!

1971 REISS T-Shirt Design Contest






The contest organized by Dazed and Digital was about creating a design that conveyed the year 1971. The winning design was £500 in vouchers and their t-shirt designs produced as part of a limited edition collection to be launched during that year’s London Fashion Week. The finalists got chosen by votes. My submission made it to the final I think in 2008 (?) and I got to choose any pair of jeans from the 1971 Reiss collection. So I was very happy!

Rapa Nui Kulturnatten 2010 Uppsala

My uncle Hector Escanilla organized a performance in Uppsala for 'Kulturnatten' 2010. The dancer Tiare Tuki is amazing and is a professional dancer from the Easter Islands. I designed the poster for the event A love story from the Easter Islands, Tiare and me...

And here are some from the night, all pictures taken by Paola Lopez.

Uppsala Press 2010

This is Uppsala Press ready to go out for distribution. I designed it for the Left Party in Uppsala, Sweden and it got massproduced, i think it ended up being 20.000 copies.
I designed a few other things for them, for their elections campaign which I will show at some other point, together with some of the contents of the newspaper 'Uppsala Press'.


And this is me in the Left Party's (Vänsterpartiets) lunch room!

Swedish election campaigns 2010

I thought these were hilarious!
I found them in Stockholm Södra just before the elections in Sweden.



Concrete brick on our backyard


I painted this brick last summer, it's a brick I found on the street and thought I could paint it. There's something about concrete bricks that I like, you can paint different motifs on different sides and somehow connect them.. and they are easy to access, I think I'll paint a few more when I find the time.

At first we had it in our backyard, but since the beginning of the last winter my mum moved it to the toilet on a shelf, where it know lives!
