Phong : Kris, I’d love to hear more about those digital collaborations with Kurt Redeker. How were these pieces done? What was your art process with these pieces?

Kris : Yea, the digital collaborations with Kurt……That was a fun and inspired chapter working on those……For a few reasons we haven’t been working together anymore, but I’m happy for what came through when we did…….Basically I would just design the main composition which I did in illustrator.  Kurt would take that and build more vectors on it giving it the vibrating effect and then he would add color.  From there we would print it on some kind of light box/back lightable material….I forget what it was called…..His framer would build a basic light box to frame it in…..led’s and plexiglass…….He would from there build a more elegant frame to house the piece and light box……There were strips of led’s on the backs of the frames……They cost a good bit to make, but they came out looking exquisite…..very refined……..I like working that way……I just make designs and love handing it off like that when collaborating……Weather its these light boxes, clothes, or whatever the project is……….
