26. Snowflake to Flower Stereoscope Production

—

Pandique x Pablito met on Instagram via the force of ice cream. Sweden x Belgium, sharing snaps and enthusiasm, it was written in the stars a creative collab would happen. Soon, a PaPaPa:ct was written. Nothing wrong with 3D pics of Lourdes and cathedrals, but Pandique and Pablito had snowflakes plus amazon forest greens in mind. Not a single click is needed to have a walk in their 3D eclectic park. Soon all over the world, now in their Stereoscope. 

A preview!

25. Karachi x Hasselt = Crazy Happy Collab City

—

Samya Arif and Pablo Hannon did a tour around their city, exchanged snaps, talked some and got to know the little things that are different and other found out other things are quite similar.

Houses in Karachi, Pakistan and Hasselt, Belgium became lego blocks and were reshuffled into a new city. Where others want angry borders to separate, we build crazy happy collab cities to connect. Looking sideways, one must. Looking upwards, one must. Smiling in cities, one must.

24. Tell me your dreams

—

"Hey, how about telling our dreams?"

"Doing a meditation and feel each other and see what comes?" 

And off they went. Wensi Zhai and Pablo Hannon doing the subconscious couch talk.

Then finding a way to not let those bizarre flashes and fragments slip away,
and make them graphic, pattern like, abstract.

This was a way of playing, brief in time, no fuzz.
A — Hello, how are you? Tell me your dreams — kind of collab.

23. Unintended urban beauty pairs

—

Dasha Selyanova of ZDDZ London and Pablo Hannon share the love for the unintended distressed city life. Ripped off posters, sun blazed stickers, wrinkled and shredded notes hanging on their last threads of life and tape,... An eclectic find in the back alleys of their cities, the less than ordinary graphic language the urban community often neglects and tends to hide. Dasha and Pablo love it. This collab is about connecting two worlds, Russia via London to Chile/Belgium via Hasselt and Liège. A first and fast collab, no room for thinking, instinctively making hasty collages from the heart. Like the so called bad part of the city does without knowing. Their favorite part.

22. Tillsammans we create more

—

How a workshop typography at the old art school of Pablo Hannon got transformed into a Things I Like a Lot creative collab. One school day, a little dozen of year 5 and 6 girls, the teacher, an apprentice and a big bunch of fallen branches and wood finds. It was a wonderful day and outcome. And all that young energy got to burn the Things I Like a Lot initials at the end. (TILAL) up in flames! Gill Sans was not harmed during this collab. Au contraire! 

Alone, we are drops of rain.

Tillsammans, vi är regn.

The accomplices of that day:

Kunstschool Genk, Applied Visual Arts

Year 5: Levi Huang, Deniz Kaya, Yente Lemmens, Inge Otten, Efthalia Pegios, Laura Thaens

Year 6: Kirsty Buvens, Daphne Caelen, Margaux Oosterbosch, Jorinde Vandewal

Teacher: Willem Vrancken

Hectica apprentice: Fleur Broes

21. Denver x Hasselt Postcards

—

Kaitlin Ziesmer and Pablo Hannon have been comparing the ordinary objects in a previous Things I Like a Lot collab. And like in other creative rencontres, making the distance between the two smaller step by step. Denver, Colorado vs Hasselt, Belgium. 3 Postcards are on the way to each other. Hand drawn and showing typical, nearly invisible to the locals, ordinary situations or objects. A house, is it? A house, where is it? A wobbly letterbox vs a sturdy mailbox. A light pole and some cable boxes. Objects we pass everyday. They appear through this collab. Just think of Kaitlin and Pablo when passing by that crooked window up the street, the chimney of your neighbour's house and the sewer hole a bit further. Ordinary, not so?
