Photos and poster mockups from the recent Air Summit workshop we did at my studio with Nike Chicago and the crew from the Blue Ribbon Studio in Beaverton. The project started with Al from BRS showing me the different air bags from Air Max shoes over the years. I used those as the inspiration for a batch of shape based graphics.
We did 2 workshops on the day of the Air Max Air Summit in Chicago with the first workshop having people use vinyl, puff and reflective transfers of the shape and graphics to make custom T Shirts and another workshop where people made mono prints using large stamps based on the same graphic kit.
Much thanks to Olu (who I have been on this Air Council project with the last few months) and to Al, Aja and Jamie from BRS who made the trek in and to all the Nike Chicago and Limitless crew for making it happen. Also thanks to everyone who came out to make stuff and really blew me away with what they did and how they remixed this simple shape set we started with.
