Finally The Day was there.
The Unveiling of The Giant…
It was as exciting as Pet van de Luijtgaarden had promised it to be.

First shrouded in darkness.
Then lights began to flicker accompanied by some 80’s sci-fi movie score…

Maybe I should consider going back to 3D seeing all the attention this lamp has been recieving…?

Go see the exhibition (also great with kids)! It will only be running for a few more days, until the 22nd of July.

Dutch summers seem to be about singing swimming in the rain these days…
After longing for some sun for so many weeks finally Mr Rockstar and me are of for better weather: California here we come!

 

 

PS1 While I am in San Francisco I will be meeting up with textile superstar Kathryn Clark. How exciting to meet an online buddy in real life!

PS2 If ANYbody knows ANY creative solution to those ugly plastics preventing viewing please let me know!

Update:

After having stayed in an absolutely adorable hippy appartment in Frisco (♥ AirBnB!) we are now on the road to greener pastures. Looking for some great campsite to stick around at… I hope to overwhelm you with stunning pictures when I get back!

 

 

 

Exhibition: Gulliver’s Collections, opening today!

Feel like an opening party? Feel like an actual Giant Party? With a Giant Collection of Collections? In a Giant Hall of a Giant Exhibition Center? Then you’re invited!

Today the massive exhibition Gulliver’s Collections will be opening at the ‘Jaarbeurs’ in Utrecht. Pet van de Luijtgaarden and his collections have done it again. This time in an even bigger venue than ever before. Pet wants to show us the absurdity of the multitude of things in our society, he asks himself: why do people need all this stuff?

My lamp of sunglasses will be included again!
