Art:tech X Nooka Nooka : Tekhka

Couple of months back, Art:Tech was invited to participate in a Nookanooka custom competition organized by H5 & Pipit.  It was pretty tough, considering the surfaces were cylindrical.  It was just madnessssss.  For 48 hours he slaved, and for 48 hours, he did not bathe.

The outcome.  Just AWESOME:



NookaNooka represents the Nooka brand and concept of design and the world. NookaNooka's phsiology is transient, eternal in his world and ephemeral, yet immortal in ours - beyond imagination yet real enough to feel. - Nooka Nooka

Najib a.k.a Art:Tech, is no stranger to the art scene. He is a self taught artist, designer and photographer from Kuala Lumpur. Ever since 2003, Art:Tech, one of the founder and pioneer members of Eightyfourcube collective, has been actively contributing to the local art scene. He's into drawing, digital graphic, motion graphic, photography and drums. He loves fine details, wires, robots, weird characters, monsters and beautiful composition. His artworks are mostly pen on a4 size paper and digitally colored. The reason he choose a4 size paper as his canvas is to challenge himself to create neat and detailed line art on a piece of normal-everyday paper. He also works on other different mediums and sizes as well. His artworks had been exhibited in local exhibitions & major events, and also featured/published in local & international magazines, e-magazines & websites. He's now the owner and director of Eightyfourcube Studio Gallery. (www.eightyfourcube.com)
