Solo Exhibition, Winschoten

Flyer In December this year, there will be a little expo around Maarten Janssens and his work for 3Eyedbear in the foyer of theater ‘Tramwerkplaats’ in Winschoten, the Netherlands. December 15, he will open the exhibition at 20:00hr with a lecture about his work after a day of visiting local schools. So he might be a little tired-looking, but please be nice to him.

Update:

We (obviously) think the expo deserves a trip through the snow to be seen. Not only did we have to adept the environment into solid cardboard to pull you in 3Eyedbear’s world, we also show never-before-seen work, a little behind the scene-peek into our future and some original analogue artwork. Everything you see will be explained, so even for an exhibition almost entirely consisting of tiny creatures, you will spend more time investigating the whole than building just one small element of it. Do the math. It’s the first time the WHOLE 3Eyedbear-universe comes together like this and to celebrate that we created this very limited-edition package with some random and unique stuff you can only buy here.
If you are still not foaming in the corners of your mouth by excitement, did I tell you that you can write on the walls? Bring Pens! But please respect the stuff that took us two days to build and hang

The end of the show:

We thank Tramwerkplaats for sticking out it’s neck and Smurfit-Kappa for supplying us with the source-material!

Urban Paper expo, Pause Tokyo

As you can see the poster is actually a paperkit by itself. If you’d like to build and customize it, you can download it here. Be sure you make pictures of it and post it around. There cannot be enough people coming obviously so tell this to our Japanese friends.

3Eyedbear will present it’s newest series: ‘Kawaii for Truckers‘, a set of three noddertoys to grace your dashboard or speakerbox. (Click the image to see them proper)
