Context & story

At Deco Days (11–12 September 2025) the brief was twofold: a painting created live, in front of visitors, that would also work as a photo spot.

The #frameforyou concept turned the wall into a giant frame for people: every visitor could become part of the artwork.

Requirements & distinctive elements

  • Live, commissioned painting during the event
  • An “instagrammable” backdrop — a photo spot
  • Strong colour, visible across the exhibition hall
  • Playful messages and characters that invite interaction
#frameforyou — a wall that puts people at the centre of the artwork.

Intervention

The wall was split into a grid of orange squares. In each one I drew a character, an emotion or a short message live: “Your turn”, “Today feels like…”, “Powered by coffee”, “Need coffee to get coffee” — even a game of noughts and crosses.

The grid made it easy to build the piece bit by bit in front of the audience, and the messages turned the wall into a game — people stopped to read, play along and take photos.
