From the Arts+Crafts market at Galeria Mutuo

I've been missing from here for a while busy with various projects.. Here are some pictures from the fair last weekend at the Galeria Mutuo. Teresa Herrador as my partner in crime and Jakob Straub on the catering and support.

 

The Prehistoric channel

A recent collaboration with Jakob Straub - an double sided riso-print poster with a story about a boy with fascination for dinosaurs.

New project in the making

I have been working on a new project, still in process/progress but here is a sneak peak

Greece

In June we traveled to Greece, to the region called Pelion ...it's lush green, and blue, and yellow, and just thinking about the place makes take a deep breath and relax a bit more

Summer inspiration

Sometimes the summer night is warm, and welcoming, and you find yourself with good company in a community garden, away from city noise and crowds. Summer inspirations, thank you summer..

Illufest 2016

Exhibitions afoot

Since coming back from Chile my work has ended up in a few exhibitions, first in Galeria El Catascopio in Barcelona during open studios, festival in Udine, Italy, and finally this coming weekend I will take part in an illustration festival in Berlin http://www.hammeraue.de/illufest/ alongside with a number of nice illustrators including Cristina Sitja whose work I really like. If you happened to be in Berlin this weekend please stop by. I will be showing my work from the Universe series.

Many many projects

I am working on a number of projects at the moment, but here is an illustration I sent in for an exhibition recently

Vida

For a long time now I have taken small steps towards working with fabric. A project called Vida based in San Francisco, CA (but available internationally) has made it possible to experiment with application of art on to good quality fabrics. You can find some more pieces here: http://shopvida.com/collections/voices/alexandra-sternin

New site

After an extended fight with WordPress I win! My new website is finally up. Thank you to Jakob Straub for his patience and help.

Sharjah

This year I took a break traveling for a couple of months in Chile (tiring and amazing). I came back to some good news to have been invited to the Sharjah International Book Fair in the UAE.
My illustrations were selected as second place winners in the exhibition. There were some really fantastic illustrators in the exhibition, so while I am very grateful for the prize, I think arguably there were equally deserving illustrators to hold this spot. In any case, the visit, the fair, and connections were so nice. Particular thank you to Fereshteh Najafi, Sonja Danowski, Valentina Piacenza, Daniel Garson Cabral, Islam Zian-Alabdeen and many many others who made the trip so special.

Té Ilustrado

A new expo coming up

This has been a long time in the making, and I am really excited to collaborate with Paula Leow a really fantastic ceramicist on a creative tea party.
If you are in Barcelona please join us on February 4th at Bebe-te on Carrer del Parlament 7, Barcelona at 19:30
