Nice spot there, I really like sticker collections that appear naturally and not just all at once by an individual

...atleast that's what I'm guessing this one is.

'Aerosol Amoeba'

Breathing life into spray paint.



The above is a still from a short film I shot and recently put together. I say "short film" but the combined length of all footage totals roughly 144 hours before I sped it up, haha.

Always interested to hear what you guys think

[idiom]

Looking good Pahnl. I can't even quite work out what you've done but i like it...

Whatever happened to the stop-motion one? Mine faltered but is still on the back burner for when i get a load of free hours...

Cheers

[eduarandres]

Nice one, i like it a lot!

And also i admire a lot the dedication and the long hours you put into everything,its amazing!, you always surprise me

[ianphenna]

Where's the hug?

[Pahnl]

The other stop motion you're talking about, 'Nowhere Near Here', launches online in three or four weeks but it's on play at The Herbert in Coventry until the 16th of January.

And aye, Eduar, quality work can't be shortcut'd. As long as I can keep the image of the finished piece in my head, I don't mind spending time on something.

Here we go, Frisk


Also, I just realized I've been given my own sub-board. Cheers for that, I presume, Silky; I'll be posting my threads in there.

It is my pleasure to present to you 'Nowhere Near Here'...



If life is a catwalk, run like a dog.

'Nowhere Near Here' is a stop motion animation that uses a combination of light with stencils and long exposure photography to tell the story of a dog running around the city at night, doing whatever a dog does. The animation was first exhibited at the The Herbert, on the 7th October 2010.

With well over 300 hours in the making, more than 200 stencils involved and too many cold nights spent outside on my knees getting the shots, I am very happy (and relieved) to finally share this with you. Through the course of shooting 'Nowhere Near Here', I have dealt with curious drunks, a dog almost peeing on the camera (the irony is not lost on me, haha), the endlessly suspicious police and even someone nearly running off with a tripod.

This is street art, this is life and thank you for watching.



For those of you that may be interested in prints,
a selection of film stills from 'Nowhere Near Here' are currently available here.

[fingerz]

Thanks Pahnl, really enjoyed that.

[wizzy]

Me too.

Enjoying the tunnel, ignoring the lights, the dog just ran.

Nose in the air, noise through the air.


'That Yellow Mark'



Like the dog, we leave our marks.

I'm really impressed by the vid - how did you do it?

I get the stop motion bit but how do you get the dog superimopsed on the photos?

The decks of yours i saw someone post on here were good too.

Nice work

[robinbanks]

This is cool. Have Röyksopp seen it? I imagine they'd think it was pretty cool that you did something so creative with their music.

[Pahnl]

Cheers mister fingerz, adamk and wiz.

And I tell you what, Dell, after working on scenes for so long, they just became dead. I had to have faith in the original ideas, I think only now, after a month or so, I can enjoy it.

Thanks, robin. Yeah, Royksopp and their managament have seen it and enjoyed seeing how their music was interpreted, high compliment.

[Coach]

This is a great piece of work mate.
Saw it when it was exhibited in the gallery in Cov. It was the talk of the show.

[elwheel]

Great video Pahnl and beautiful prints. Favourite is Howling followed by Light Traffic! Congrats!

[barnsy]

When I first saw the prints, I was not impressed. Then I watched the vid, which is brilliant, well done. Then I took another look at the prints and they are in context to the film. Really liking what you do, will bookmark your site! Cheers for sharing.........

[stanley]

I went for this. Bargain £35 posted.

[Pahnl]

There was certainly a nice huddle around the screen, couldn't get near it myself, haha. Cheers coach

[Pahnl]

Cheers, stanley, these'll be heading out middle of next week when an order of custom mail packaging will finally be arriving.

And jakek, the dog has been 'burnt' into the image using stencils and light, which is all easier said than done, I promise you!

Cheers, elwheel, so far 'Light Traffic' appears to be the most popular one of the set. Half of the 'complete set' has been snapped up already too.

Aye, barnsy, these prints benefit from the context (and motion) of the animation. I think had I just (light) painted these scenes and got them printed, they would be weaker.

[eduarandres]

my favorite has to be out of the bins

[fingerz]

i watch the vid at least once a day...do i ave a problem...lol

[Pahnl]

Addiction to an animation, now that'd be a first.

[20/20]

Dam u and your cam/anim skills!

Seriously good stuff. Well jealous.

ps, your little dog made it all the way to spain last month.

[Pahnl]

camera + canine + animation = caminanim

...no? Yeah, I thought it was crap too.

Cheers mate, have a good time in spain?

(damn their dog pictogram is better than ours in England!)

[Wearology]

I just purchased these great photographs from PAHNL. He is such a great talent and we are very lucky to have him as a member of our community. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to get these bad boys on my wall.

[illu]

quality stuff as always!!!!

[Pahnl]

Thank you, illu mate.

And they're well on their way to you now, along with the extras, Wearology. Now just the one 'Complete Set' of prints remaining.

'Chasing Bones' Gold

The dog wanted that bone, it wanted it more than anything else.
Oblivious to his surroundings, he continued to chase after the bone, pounding the ground with each paw.
Relentless, hungry and hopeful, the dog was happy.

This edition of gold cans were available during the 'Street Art' exhibition at The Herbert and now with the show over, I've made the remaining pieces available online.

Available to purchase for £55, includes worldwide postage, at pahnl.co.uk/store.php

New canvas works on the way; notably a trilogy of night pieces depicting (no surprise) dogs, cats and pigeons, hahaha.
