Phoenix Logo

The following poem is a rebelious ‘Smartlap’ about good ol’ Amsterdam as it was and ended. A ‘Smartlap’ was a flag with the lyrics of a songtext, which was held up high in the old cafes of Amsterdam to sing along with the performer. Not even 10 years ago a decade of tradition in undergroundparties in squats and other old buildings, was still alive. Though changed over the years it was the home of a lot of people in the underground movement of the city. Amsterdam as I knew it came to an end. People got older, got a ‘real’ life, but also the city changed. It got cleaned up and became beautiful but boring.

Now the rough edges are back! We are fighting for new spaces and venues…! So check out PHOENIX AM*DAM in my links section and be part of this nostalgic experience!

Another Logo I designed was for a product of a friend of mine. It was a Vodka drink and it was called ‘Hexen Elixir’. Of course at Medusa it was a popular beverage.

Here you see the big Medusa Logo Backdrop. After Medusa was beheaded, there was another gothic party called Mordor. I also designed this Logo.

These are really the last Medusa Flags I’ve recently photographed. These Flags decorated the walls of the venue. Remember smells take you back in time? The smell of these flags really did take me back to the Force!

In 2003, the first new party to be given, after Medusa, was Mordor. This was also a gothic event. For this party I did a lot of new Flags & Backdrops and a new Logo Design. All the flags were done in blacklight paint. We wanted to have all the art works in ‘Metropolis’ style. I’m not sure if that can be clearly seen, but I tried to do something with the Four Horsemen of the Apocalyps. Here you see pictures of the Drawings and the Flags.

These pictures were taken at Cear Gwydion, a gothic party in Belgium. This was the first art-exhibition of my work at that time. This must have been in 2002.
