Pendulum North American Tour 2009 Official Artwork

January 29, 2009 | Filed under: Graphic & Illustration by valp @ 6:52 pm

I have just finished this illustration for Pendulum, an Australian drum and bass/electronic group. It’s official artwork for their tour through United States taking place in March 2009.

My idea was to interpret In Silico album artwork (published in 2008) to give a touch of fresh air into their identity. I believe you can find out what I’m talking about after comparing both images ;).

I’m a fan of Pendulum and working on that artwork was a pure pleasure. Hope fans will enjoy it same as I did (best on tour!).

Priscilla - Queen of the Desert, Bus Ads in London

January 21, 2009 | Filed under: Graphic & Illustration by valp @ 9:03 pm

I’ve just received these bus photos with Priscilla - Queen of the Desert musical advertisements I was workin on last year. Buses are running in London right now so hopefully some of you can catch them :).

More about the show:

PRISCILLA QUEEN OF THE DESERT THE MUSICAL is rolling into London’s West End in March 2009 and parking at the Palace Theatre for the ultimate feel-good theatrical experience!

Based on the hit film, PRISCILLA tells the story of Tick (Jason Donovan), Bernadette (Tony Sheldon) and Adam (Oliver Thornton), a glamorous Sydney-based performing trio that agree to take their show to the middle of the Australian outback. Priscilla is the heart-warming, uplifting adventure of three friends who hop aboard a battered old bus (nicknamed Priscilla) searching for love and friendship and end up finding more than they could ever have dreamed.

With a dazzling array of outrageous costumes and featuring a score of dance-floor classics. This wildly fresh and funny new musical is a sensational journey to the heart of fabulous.

Experience for yourself…

Hop on board!

Illustrations for Copernicus Science Centre

January 14, 2009 | Filed under: Personal Stuff by valp @ 1:20 am

I was honoured by receiving invitation to join team of designers working for Copernicus Science Centre two months ago. The goal was to illustrate exhibitions which will be available in CSC. I did three graphics which were also used for 2009 callendar (cover above - more images soon).

Creative director: Matej Subieta, Agency: Platige Image

Copernicus Science Centre will soon open in Warsaw, on the bank of the Vistula River, as one of the first institutions of its type in Poland. Anyone who gives the experiments a try will quickly see how absorbing and fascinating science can be. Age is simply not an issue – the exhibits are designed to ensure that everyone, regardless of their age, can find something intriguing for them…. Quoted from CSC site.
