Evelin Kasikov in the L Gallery

This
month the L Gallery at Wieden + Kennedy presents Evelin Kasikov.

Evelin creates truly handmade graphics. She employs the craft
techniques of embroidery to create typographical illustrations firmly rooted in
her graphic design background. She uses typography, grid systems and
design techniques to create work at the very cutting edge of contemporary
craft practices.

Alongside
this, Evelin has developed a CMYK cross-stitch technique that creates printed
images with needle and thread. She has started work on a
pantone book using this method.

IT'S FINALLY SUNNY – WOOHOO!

That's right, the weather is beautiful outside and there's nothing better to do when our nearest star is burning brightest than sitting inside and looking at YouTube videos on the Internet. Living the dream my friends, living the dream.

I'm not going to lie, it hasn't been a vintage week online. There are a few bits and pieces of interest though:

  • IBM have made the world's smallest ad (an accolade previously held by some of our work for Nokia)
  • Gwyneth Paltrow still can't dress herself apparently
  • One half of 90s rap superstars Kris Kross died this week (hence an outpouring of affection for Jump)
