Naomi and I have been on a vacation trip to my hometown Madrid. It’s been an unforgettable time meeting our beloved family and friends! And the best time to enjoy the wonderful Spanish food, sun and it’s lively city night life that we missed so bad! In this trip, I have also taken the opportunity to close some projects, talk to other artists and friends and meet some new people in the growing art scene in Madrid. I’ve also introduced Space Age Child, the 1st piece of my new retro-futurist collection, to different people from the art scene and I’m really flabbergasted by their enthusiasm! So there are some exciting things to come for the next months: album covers, books, music and exhibitions…
