Limited Edition Poster

admin — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 13:54:12 +0000

The Low Life Team joins forces to bring you this limited-edition poster, for hard-core collectors only.
Read on to see well thought out explanation of the process of the production of the poster by a silk screening professional coupled with amazing photos by photographer Manuel Abella introducing you to the technique of serigraphy.

I was 12 years old when I first wanted to design and wear my own shirts.
I soon began to invent some personal techniques and started putting my drawings on t-shirts. A couple years later I heard about the technique of silkscreen, however, nobody could help me do it or even take the time to explain it clearly. When I started studying graphic design in my older age I finally began to learn all the possibilities to learn the silk screening process. In the beginning I quickly realized all the possibilities to print on nearly everything, be it shirts, wood, glass, pvc (plastic), metal, paper, carton, sticker; everything!

You can print just about any color and even special colours like gold and silver.
You can even have colours that smell like chocolate or other scents. Nowadays I am more and more interested in the imprecision you can provoke in scrolling the layers on each print. There are a lot of experimental possibilities in silkscreen you can use in an artistic way, which is the most important thing to me and what has draw me to it.
You can do everything you want in silk screening and the only important thing is that it is authentic and ascetically cool.
After all the time I have spent silk screening I would love to learn the technique of woodcarving and etching as well as basic techniques like lino-cut. Different techniques require you to have to draw differently and adapt to the differences between the different techniques.

In the art of printing shirts, silkscreen is the most important technique of all.
Of course there are other techniques but silk screening stands above them all as the best and gives you the highes quality you can receive. It gives you a big coat application provoking a clear graphic language important in making t-shirts. Ultimately you end up with one or more colored surfaces that come together to create an entire image. No other print technique exists that can print such clear and pure colors onto a shirt, hat, window, poster, or anything of the sort which is what gives it its magic. With this particular piece, we first had do find the right colors and the best inks.

You have to find the right colors in considering the hierarchy of the single symbols.
The printing process is always the same, no matter how or what you want to print it on. You have to make sure that every layer fixes on each other and nothing overlaps the previous one. Once you start to print it is very important that you print fast and that the color has the right balance between color and solvent. In the dimension of a poster you have to do everything just right or you will end up problems. I truly feel like the colors are absolutely brilliant and the poster portrays everything anyone silk screening would want to exhibit when when doing a project like this.

Wien / Vienna

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:07:52 +0000

did u know that in an international comparison is the Vienna U-Bahn relatively young. The question of the establishment of a Vienna U-Bahn had already been over 100 years the subject of heated debate. From 1844 to the 1960s, numerous U-Bahn plans were ignored or simply rejected. The city of Vienna focused on the planning of a U-Bahn network until the outbreak of the Second World War.By the end of the war, the U-Bahn plans were discontinued. In 1969, an entirely new transport system was created in Vienna.

The Vienna U-Bahn is relatively young.

The test run was recorded in 1976 and the first opening took place in 1978.
Today the Vienna Subway made his way tru tunnels and stopped on on of our “Our City Our Trains” t-shirt. Check out our “Our City Our Trains” and specially the “Vienna t-shirt” in our shop!
