[Co]-lab
I'm always working on something. Most of the time, it's creating designs for clients. But sometimes, it's a personal project in collaboration with others that lets me explore new concepts and ideas.

Disability turned into print design by Rune Timmermans (Textile Paint on Silk)
Street Shamans - Design Expo (2023)
At first the answers to this question resulted in bursts of colors, emotions, personal courage, victory and audacity on textile.
From breakdancing on silk until raindrops fall in the dry land of Alcublas (Spain), to designing a personal pain map of the body.

Artwork Sweater by Nine Lodewyckx

The end result is clothing that tells a story about adolescents and their vision, a vision that interacts with their bodies and the world surrounding them.

My Values
I love collaborations,
they are a source of valuable information exchange and partnership.
However, I only work on collaborations that care about making a change in the world. I adress themes like environmental issues, mental health, social questions, rascism, (street)art and education.
If this triggers you, feel free to scroll down to some of
my collaborations and protest-works
and contact me below.

Entropy Wired
The universe is in a constant state or dissolution. This artwork is an observation of that process on a social scale.
It is a critique towards every system that doesn’t reinvent and adjusts itself on time to the needs of its social problems. A problem that is frequently discussed in our collective.
What started out as a complete piece of fabric got carefully cut and artificially placed in a web. This web ‘freezes’ the decomposition of the ribbons knowing they can’t be reunited anymore.
The first layer of this artwork consists of olive green ribbons that are a reference towards the first layer painters use to paint skin. The black grids refers to a widely used technique in the graffiti scene to emphasize an image.
In the layer above we can see a cheap faux patent leather that must retain a rusted coloured fabric.
The old elite held together by the unrecognized new generation.
The tooth of decay emphasizes that reformations are ever so necessary and when this doesn’t happen, the curtain will certainly collapse one day.
