• Shake – Brilliant dutch graffiti artist

  Date: 2010.08.05 | Category: Art | Response: 0

  

  Jill Martens, also known as `Shake`, is a brilliant Dutch graffiti artist from The Hague. Although his career started being a graffiti virtuoso, painting anything from walls to trains, from cars to furniture. Jill developed himself into a more all-round graphics designer and he has taken graffiti-art onto the next level. Taking the street style art form from walls to canvas, his paintings have now been auctioned at Sotheby`s and have been exposed from Antwerp to Barcelona.
  He was even asked to beautify a fifty meter long wall, inside the (in)famous Scheveningen correctional facility (prison), and he painted the whole training facility for the Dutch Olympic beach volleyball team, for which sand was brought in from Beijing, China.

  Although Jill spends a lot more time these days designing computer-rendered graphics and lay-outs, and painting his art inside his home, he will always feel the shivers down his spine, when looking at a big empty wall…Never being able to part from his roots, he will always have a passion for illegal street style graffiti writing. With spray-paint running through his veins, Jill Martens even bleeds art…

  After years of working for the Greensville studio’s, Avec, Westland studio’s etc. Ralph made his way creating business movies, video clips and short movies. By the time he was being asked almost 24/7 for his camera and editing work he decided to move on.
  Ralph issomebody who reacts on everything around him for inspiration and motivation and wants to improve that which he sees. Throughout the last ten years he has been showing that drive and spirit and he puts all his effort and passion in this thing called ‘Dreams’.

  So what is ‘Dreams’?
  It’s a mind spin becoming a realization. In this world where people still tend to choose to help themselves and forgetting in the process that when you are alone you are really alone, even with all your money, your trophy wife, which was bought with your too expensive car. And in the end you still feel alone and miserable. Small wonder as you fucked over everybody in your process to become rich, to become happy, to become all you hated when you were younger. Ralph thinks that together we can do so much more and it is a lot nicer, happier, more fun. In the last ten years Dreams has been showing that working and playing together is the way to happiness and that is so much more worth than your hot money chick and your too expensive car. The people on our planet earth are really fucked up sometimes, but we Dream on, we party on, we love more, we laugh more and we live more. Our world is Dreams.

  Follow your Dreams, live Reality
