We've been experimenting with some new sediment techniques in the studio this week, not bad so far!

We've been having a few days of internal crits and looking back at all the work made in the last few years here in the JakBox studio and what a lot we're made! We've also been thinking about our future plans and have been bouncing some very exciting ideas around, so stay tuned for some announcements in the next few weeks!

Since my last post on the graffiti theft project, we’ve developed our technique and are now creating even bigger and better pieces!

We’ve been very busy in the JakBox Studio the last few weeks, working on lots of different projects in preparation for our exhibition in mid-April. Something that has been bubbling for a few months now is an attempt to steal graffiti…

Another project we’ve been working on in the studio is Marking Time! All of the objects in this series have been found on the street, discarded by society.

As of late, JakBox have made some extreme progression in the field of molding.
The large scaled silicones we have been setting on the streets of Camden have really begun taking shape, and what’s more, taking prints.

These silicone pavement moldings are representational of the ideas that guide us, and similarly the ones that we dismiss, and walk all over if you will.

Tyres have a specific design to enhance their performance. Grip, durability, and simplicity in appearance are key to the success of its original purpose. The diagonal slices that make them road-worthy and the beastly muscle that is formed by the rubber, are just two qualities JakBox has taken to break down and re-brief.

As well as Points of View, something else we’ve been busy working on in the studio is making patterns with mud (yes, it is as fun as it sounds!) Inspired by the patterns of sediment that remain in the tub after having a muddy bath, we have tried to recreate this intriguing effect on paper.

Peculiarities of the mundane become elements of the artist’s canvas.

A glimpse of movement, walking as a form of art & digital driving into reality
This week in the JakBox studio we’ve been working on the Points of View project, with many exciting things underway. As well as wandering around Camden in search of more ‘points’ that give an unexpected perspective on our environment, we’ve been doing some research into other artists that have used the urban landscape as inspiration for their work.
