Work description:
This illustration is part of a period of work. It represents a snapshot of a larger process of experimentation. Often, a period of work will produce a number of variations, each with its own unique character.

Birgit Amadori (Germany)

I’m a 27 year old illustrator and originally from Germany, where I graduated from the HFG OFFENBACH. This year I came to the sunny shores of California and I’m now catching waves in Redondo Beach.
I have a great interest in japanese design and culture since many years, and I’m a big fan of Shift Magazine which brings me monthly news from the other end of the world. That’s why I want to thank you so much for letting me be in this publication!

Work description:
Lately I’ve been watching many japanese ghost movies when it’s dark and goosebumps have somewhat become my addiction.
I wanted to create a spooky picture, nothing that is obviously scary or disgusting. But I found to my surprise that some people see the scenery not as spooky, but also melancholic or even peaceful. In whatever way you perceive it, enjoy !

A little phrase to start out the day. To remember people to not take life seriously.

Sarah Doyle (UK)

I am an artist in London and exhibit my work internationally. My work was shown this year along with a live drawing performance in Japan for my show at And A.
I also have work published in international magazines including Elle, Arty, Fake and Baby Baby Baby.
I use mixed media and drawing as the main processes as well as creating work in video and multi media.
The subjects I deal with typically concern popular culture and growing up. I explore the sense of being an outsider experienced by most teenagers, a feeling of alienation and looking for a place where you fit in the world. Looking for something you have in common with other people. The themes of my work involve fantasy and reality, disguise and self-discovery.

Work Description:
A List stars created in Felt Tip.
To be part of an A List is the ideal in the mind of most people, these iconic figures live a seemingly fairytale existence. They are the desired and we project our own need to feel desired on to them.
Here the A List stars from Hollywood and music are listed and drawn in the same way teenagers draw pictures of their idols in their bedrooms, using teenage drawing materials.
