Not much else to say, watch it for yourself.

“I had the pleasure of taking part in the big Hallenkunst 2011 show in Chemnitz, Germany in the middle of December 2011. I was among 45 artists that were invited to exhibit at the huge Messecenter on the east side of the old East-German city. Also showing was my photographer friend Martin Andreasen, he took half the shots in this update. I had three days at the show before it opened, in this time I produced all 6 canvases in size 1×1 meter and decorated the wallspace of my booth before the big Friday opening with thousands of visitors. It was good challenge with the limit timeframe, it was fun to see alot of old friends and meet new ones too.
Big thanks to Lars, Martin and Kacao77 for their help and to the whole Hallenkunst crew, hope to see you for 2012!”
