Screen printing + Studio visit = Jollygoodfellow
Jollygoodfellow mixes with no respect old and new, city and nature, high tech and low tech in block printing, screen printing and other experiments. We like to work with the entire process from idea to the tangible work with screenprinting, making small labels and what it may be. The editions are therefore small.
Jollygoodfellow is a duo consisting of Esa and Lisa Tanttu, Esa is also working with graphic design with a focus on interactive design (www.esa.se) and it happens that he puts on his pop-jeans and plays drums. Lisa has studied art pedagogy at Konstfack and is more interested in how images affect us than to draw beautyfully, feel a certain delight in waste material like toilet rolls and styrofoam.
Our goal is to save the planet and, therefore, we insist on using organic cotton, second hand garments and other fair materials. In our work with the prints, we have a desire for the timeless (they should in all cases live longer than the latest mobile phone model).
