Filter017 Interview On Frozenaisle來自美國洛杉磯(Los Angeles, California, U.S.A.)的訪問邀請
Frozenaisle是一個專門報導全世界藝術以及音樂文化訊息的網路媒體,很高興能夠受到關注與邀約!
以下為專訪內容:
What is your background as an artist? Where did you go to school?
ENZO & WEN both graduated from Graphic Design of university at Taichung, Taiwan. NICK graduated from Interior Design of university at Xi'an, China.
What’s the meaning and concept of the name: Filter017?
Hahaha, I heard that question quite a lot. Actually it doesn’t stand for anything, or any particular meanings. Supposing it does have a meaning, must mean something trifles, I guess the name is not that important.
The “Robber Bank” wallet was an awesome design, how did you come up with that concept?
Because coming to designing wallet; we thought it would be great to connect with “money”. We thought putting “money” in “money” is a pretty cool idea and it also presents the feeling of luckiness; like using it may make a fortune or become rich. As a result we decided to combine the high recognized image of US dollars with the pirate visual rendering; in order to give you the feeling that using it might give you the of getting property of accident.
What design programs are you using right now? Any techniques you care to share for our readers?
We recently just finish a cooperation case with some fashion boutiques about the visual design of wall covering, and what comes to next are two cases about Platform Toy designs. What we are doing doesn’t require any particular technique, what we need is a lot of passions.
As far as the art process goes, do you mainly sketch out your ideas or work on them digitally from the start? Could you describe your typical workflow for an illustration?
We are not good at drawing sketching, that’s why all the drafts were started digitally, or we will create some really simple and clean lining drafts. Basically we prefer doing our composition of pictures and typesetting by the computer, although its digital work but we give the impression of drawing sketching, the benefits is we can get clean lining without looking stiffly.
So you have done work for magazines, products, clothing and other industries. Which industry has been the most challenging to work in and why?
I think they’re all very changeling. After all, applying graphic design on all kinds of media takes a lot time and efforts to devise and adjust.
Do you ever look through art magazines for inspiration? If so, what magazines?
This is an essential! We are not geniuses; of course we need reference materials to inspire our inspirations. We did not make the limitation; basically we will look though magazines with great amounts of photos with furniture, contrivances, products, graphic designs, Illustrations…etc. We are not really into the magazines with a lot of texts.
What is your favorite and least favorite thing about the design and illustrating industry?
The least favorite thing is to be forced to make a creation in a very short time; also some dreary cases without autonomy are also very tiresome.
Where do you see your work going? What are your plans for future projects? What are you most excited about right now?
ENZO and WEN spend most of their time in their studio at Taipei, and Nick is at Shanghai. Occasionally we meet at Shanghai to discuss few plans. We are now preparing our own brand and products, and also name as “Filter017”. New collections are developing presently; except for the basic collections of T-shirts, caps, and bags; we are looking for products with more conception, and capable to combine with our image. This is now our main goal.
Any advice for our readers?
Do the thing that you want to do and do the thing that you are truly interest in, and then try to turn it into a career. That will be easier to hold on in a long tern without complaining and boredom.http://www.frozenaisle.com/2009/06/interview-filter017.html
就因為我們不願意跟其他人一樣妥協,所以我們是"龜毛"、是"吹毛求疵"?!
就因為我們不願意跟隨沒有道理的迷思,所以我們是"非主流"、是"過度理想"?!
因為利潤和商業慣例如此,我們就需要屈就於市場和大環境?!
一件簡單的事情落到我們身上竟變得複雜,只是因為我們不願意敷衍那些所謂"看不出來"或者"不太明顯"的問題,只因為我們不想自欺欺人,把"不想"克服的問題變成"不能"克服的問題,如果已經知道是個問題,又怎能不試著盡力去解決?(妥協不一定代表解決)
或許有許多人抱持的看戲觀望的心態,認為我們天真、入世未深,或者不切實際、自找麻煩...
這三個月以來,所有的問題彷彿自問自答,即使土法煉鋼也是解決問題的一種方式,我們只想試著證明,不輕易跟環境與現實壓力妥協,究竟我們的意志力可以支撐我們做到怎樣的程度?
也許某些層面和考量對許多人來說是"多餘",但我們而言這些"多餘"是興趣、是喜好、是能讓事情更美好的細節,那麼這些"多餘",我們有甚麼理由選擇不去做?去捨棄這些"多餘"? 然而大多數人不做的答案仍然無法說服我們...
誠意是我們最大的態度,我們"面對自己"的這一關把守的非常嚴謹,現階段我們已盡最大努力了!剩下的我們似乎能祈求無形的力量協助,不需要額外的好運,請賜予我們"一切正常"就好...
未來這樣的方式和做法也不會改變,決心相信各位會在不久的未來和成果上漸漸看到!
對不起...我們必須要用自己的方式去實踐,即使繞回原點,畢竟自己走過...
對不起...我們還是忍不住抱怨了...XD

左起 Bunka (France) / Filter017 (Taiwan) / Frank Kozik (USA)]
adFunture 官方也同時公布了2009 YOKA的合作藝術家名單:
PRESS: After 1 year of preparations, YOKA Series 1 will finally be released in July of 2009. We have included 28 variants in this series, designed by artists and labels that we love. Collaborators include Huck Gee, Bunka, Buff Monster, INVOKE, Phallic Mammary, DGPH, Frank Kozik, Filter017, Mishka NYC, Mania (from Taipei) Wrong Wroks, Playground and Arkiv.
黑白配色是今年最流行的Look! 熊貓在這幾年成為台灣曝光率、報導率最高的動物,當大家爭相注目這隻新寵時,也該想想在地球持續惡化的環境循環下,曾經也受大家喜愛的北極熊、跟台灣黑熊,他們所處的生態問題。

相同的道理,流行、設計以及各種領域,在追求流行話題的當今社會下,除了那些媒體以及鎂光燈所關注的事物外,別忘了還有許多被忽視卻仍默默在耕耘、努力的朋友。
2009年是個嶄新的一年,盛傳今年最流行莫過於貓熊了~ 2009年1月台灣刮起一波貓熊風潮(應該從去年就開始了)。貓熊固然可愛,帶也別忘了其他動物也是很討人喜歡的。2009年,tode在景氣大風暴中,受到了一點點影響,也因此這點影響,讓tode有著重新出發的力量。因為貓熊,今年tode決定跟貓熊作個對比。
有了貓熊,也別忘了因為環境而影響的北極熊,還有一直都在保育類動物的台灣黑熊。希望透過詼諧、可愛的圖像,一點一點讓大家去關注總是居於角落的弱勢!
Filter017受託於
tode,特別設計了這款"
FASHION NEW LOOK",用設計行動來關懷這個社會上任何區塊角落的弱勢!
ps. 你可以在tode
樂天找到這項商品。
