Drawing Waves, South African–born, German-based artist Robin Rhode. From July 17, 2015 to August 30, 2015, The Drawing Center, New York
“Before the exhibition opens Rhode partnered with a group of children aged 8-10 years to create this large-scale mural of the high seas, which will be video recorded and on view. He has begun the process by attaching vinyl cutouts of seventeenth century mercantile ships to the gallery wall, and then the children freely have drawn the surrounding body of water using giant, custom-made oil crayons. The nautical motif is largely inspired by the East India Company fleet, who were the first colonialists in Southern Africa—a nod to Rhode’s own childhood and the indignities he faced growing up in a post-apartheid South Africa. Yet as a participatory artwork, Rhode offers a more hopeful message by bringing urban youth culture to the fore and demonstrating the power of pure imagination”.

Melina is a place mat for breakfast, lunch or dinner. If you fold Melina conveniently, it turns into a little doll. Melina is inspired by an old popular toy that was widespread in postwar Italy, when mothers and grandmothers used to make dolls by folding and rolling up a napkin or a bath towel.
Melina is a project by designer Valia Barriello.
