    Stepping into the arena full of urban art, I caught Felipe Talu in action.

    Sunday, 18 June, Eindhoven: This month is all about enjoying outdoors. The spring is in the air. Urban artists were undergrounded. Stepping into the arena full of urban art in the undergrounds of Eindhoven. I caught Felipe Talú from Rio de Janeiro. The graffiti artist spared me a few minutes to tell me the story behind his inspiration.

    I caught Felipe Talu from Rio de Janeiro. The graffiti artist spared me a few minutes. He says when I ask about the story behind his drawings:

    ” My grafitti is basically bold and colourful.

    I have no gifted inspiration. As for the drawings, I make them as it comes. I love bold fonts. Grafitti is an art that everyone can do it. You only need to make it personal. Believe in yourself. You’ll  fullfil your dreams!”

  • Hear, hear! My thoughts on the Fashion Revolution week

    The Fashion Revolution week is timeless

    I buy clothing and I certainly complete my outfit with elegant accessories that make me look good. It feels great to be stylish. Greater feeling, when I know the designer or brand has ethical standards. That all the process from production to delivery is transparent. Making sure the people involved in the production earned their fair wages in good working conditions.

    Since the tragic event of Rana Plaza, the secret of cheap clothing on fast fashion is revealed. Plenty of reasons for the fashion industry to become aware of waste disposal, carbon releases, poor working conditions, human and animal rights. All these issues are important to the feel good: mind, body, and spirit. The planet also benefits from this feel. The world is better, and you look and feel beautiful.
