PUMA URBAN ART PERàš 2014: BLEK LE RAT

Este año fuimos nuevamente convocados por Puma para diseñar la experiencia del festival Puma Urban Art en Lima, y tuvimos el honor de recibir al padre del esténcil: Blek le Rat. Diseñar el festival, rastrear y convocar artistas locales del stencil (y pintar con ellos), trabajar con Blek en la producción local de sus piezas, producir cada actividad y disfrutarla al máximo fue todo un viaje. Sin embargo, el verdadero viaje fue sumergirnos en el punto de vista de nuestro invitado, y su alucinante perspectiva del arte urbano. Gracias a todos los que participaron directa o indirectamente en hacer que este proyecto suceda. Fue la semana más emocionante e intensa que hemos vivido en los 3 años de proyecto y refleja claramente a que nos referimos cuando decimos que trabajamos para hacer que todos los dias sean DOMINGO!
