Take a look behind the scenes of "Building a Favourite Website":
Alex Otto about working on "Build a Favourite Website":
„I was up for something new and different from the digital production I’m working on every day. The original idea was to connect the „digital“ with the real, not digital world. There’s about 90% of traditional and 10% of digital art in this work. Due to lots of handwork I was able to accentuate many small details. While creating this piece I just let the steam off. It was fun.
Things I learned while working on the wallpaper? Never work with styrofoam unless you want everything to get messy. You can create amazing things with this stuff but it’s gonna fly around there for weeks.”
