The guy (as you could easily understand) is holding a Lifebuoy. But that wasn't my job. :-)

Mosaic illustration for the Lifebuoi (Unilever) campaign in Dubai. This celebrating guy is made out of thousands of handprints.
I am not working in Guinness Records :-) but this one is probably the biggest and surely one the biggest mosaic images ever made. The actual billboard in Dubai is 66 ft high and more 600 ft long. You can see it bellow.

Ronaldinho: Brazil 2010 (2), originally uploaded by tsevis.

Subject, Inspiration:
Experimental mosaic illustration and poster for the Brazilian national football team and the talented footballer Ronaldo de Assis Moreira aka Ronaldinho.
Inspired by the Brazilian flag and of course by the Brazilian national team. I may be a devoted fan of Italy and USA but I have to admit that these Brazilian guys are not playing. They are dancing!

Pattern, Grid:
I am still experimenting with the African inspired patterns. I am trying to simplify the patterns in order to produce a more international and more contemporary style.

Colors:
The color set includes 3+3 spot colors. The first three are the colors of the flag and I also have used three intermediate tones.

Software, Technique:
Made with custom developed scripts and techniques in Synthetik Studio Artist, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Apple QuickTime Pro.

Design Walk 2010: Analog VS digital

Design Walk 2010: Analog VS digital, originally uploaded by tsevis.

This is a mosaic illustration made in collaboration with my friends at the Indyvisual Design Collective. These good fellas asked me to play with them on the subject "analog VS digital". They have been given this subject by Double Decker, curators of the Design Walk 2010.
The idea of Petros Voulgaris, Costas Vassilakis, Stavros Georgakopoulos, Christos Kourtoglou and Giorgos Chandrinos was to create a digital mosaic and then they would reconstruct it in an analog mode.
We chose to use the eyes from the poster of the Mathieu Kassovitz's "La Heine" movie. My friends are thinking that the film is not only a great classic but it's also expressing a period that our country is also living lately.
To provide a revolutionary response to this social mess we chose to use some leftist or military clichés like the star or the thunder but enrich them with floppies and scissors that are symbols of digital and analog creativity. The Black-Red-Yellow colors are not used only because we wanted to incorporate another cliché. These are the actual colors of the Indyvisuals' working space. (I think this guys are supporting a yellow soccer team or something... :-))

You can watch the making of the analog version of the mosaic.
