Hiroyuki Hamada | AUREUS Contemporary. Hiroyuki Hamada’s work bridges the contrasting conceptions of the industrial and the organic through his minimal yet highly complex process of painting, digging and drilling.”Rubbing resins, wax, and pigment into smoothed and sanded layers of plaster, Mr. Hamada transforms basic construction materials into something swelling with spirit and consciousness.”
(quoted from Janet Goleas article, “Buddhist Pillow? Bayer Asprin“). Hamada’s palate choice balances the intricate and mathematical repetition with noninvasive earth tones, that allow the viewer to examine each piece time and time again, perhaps reaching a different end each time. “I’ve been working with plaster for the past 13 years or so. Initially I used it to mix with my paintings. As my paintings got thicker and more object-like, I started stretching burlap on wood panels and wood boxes to coat them with plaster before I painted on them.

When adidas Women was preparing to introduce the world to its new brand, #mygirls, they knew they needed to engage a digital media company that would not only embrace the concept, but take it to the next level through a blend of strategy, design and content that would resonate with its existing audience. After extensive conversations, Gin Lane won the bid and began an intense strategy period that included one-on-one interviews and focus groups with girls all over the world: Sweden, Australia, France, Korea, Chile and New Zealand, to name a few. Despite their cultural and geographical differences, we noticed that the girls had one thing in common: they felt stronger and were more active as a group than when they were apart.
In response to their feedback, Gin Lane created a new type of platform, a digital “magazine” that could bring adidas Women from all over the world together through common themes, stories and activities. Anthony Lister. Shop New Items | Saturdays. Fine Thought | Nathan Leigh Davis.
