In the first Agendapunten post I mention that I would like to create a series of queer activism posters that I can clatter around the internet and city of Rotterdam. I wanted to break away from the ‘CAN’T WAIT TO BE MYSELF’ design, because I want to play and not limit myself in such an early stage of the process.

As a designer it is my goal to strive for autonomy in my work. Because that is where a lot of beauty – and fun – lies. In mistakes, existence and ‘reality’. So I was pleasantly surprised when Niels told me that he bought a batch of letraset letters and wanted to start a project with them.

Fine Grains Records is “an amalgam of new music and design, anticipating and releasing artwork and sounds from artists around the globe since 2012”. And they asked Niels to do a rebrand. So, we started with analysing their current identity and sketching forms. The sun was shining, and we felt experimental, so we spray painted a selection of forms.

Kevin Versteeg, a friend of Niels, writes witty poetry and makes bizarre drawings. His work is perfect to practise my book-binding skills, so we decided to design a bundle of his gathered pieces.

DJ Mauro Rakinho wanted mini-branding for his playful house music mixtapes. Niels already designed a logo, and Rakinho would like to add a mascotte, – in the form of a chemical test tube character, because he ‘brews’ his music – artwork for his monthly digital releases, a wallpaper for his screensaver for his phone, and we personally would like to add an element of animation because I want to introduce it into my skillset ~fancyshmancy~.

As a response to the upcoming regional elections the Nieuwe Bossche School will host a poster event that allows artists and designers to communicate a political theme/issue that is important to them. Niels gave me the opportunity to pick my own subject of interest. I wanted to make a statement about the (lack of) Dutch transgender-care. The current system is inhumane because people who need urgent assistance have to wait for long periods of time until they receive the help they need. This is a big issue because you should not have to wait in order to get medical or psychological assistance. These are human rights. Besides that, people deserve to feel and be seen. Not to be put in such vulnerable positions.
