Iaminawe recently created the website and identity for new startup, Artskinz, which manufactures high quality protective and stylish vinyl covers for your i-pod’s and laptops.

The designs for the skins are cherry picked from a range of Cape Town’s hottest illustrators and fine artists including superheroes like Kronk, The Black Heart Gang, Mine Jonker, Love and Hate Collective, Carmen Ziervogel, Rick Treweek, Mikey Staal and host of other talent. There are also designs from underground graffitti maniacs Faith 47, Senyol, Warren Lewis and Wealz 130 with new designs and artists being added all the time.

The site was created by integrating OSCommerce with Wordpress to create an online shop with blog attached. I won’t go so far as to say the integration was a painless one and I found trying to skin OScommerce effectively to be very tricky.

We have a few designs in the range with more coming soon. Check them out and click to order any of the designs or see larger versions.

These designs came from our range of Cityflauge T-shirts so we have full cityflauge uniforms now :)

Iaminawe created these two animations for production company Atomik Pictures for an exciting new skateboarding documentary called MonuMental: Re-riding History. The Red Bull initiated documentary follows seven of South Africa’s best young skateboarders as they ollie, kickflip, carve and grind their way through, over and on some of South Africa’s most formidable Apartheid era monuments.

Written and Directed by Amanda Evans, the documentary has some beautiful 16mm footage of the skaters as they travel around South Africa from monument to monument meeting with controversial figures and severe but skateable architecture from South Africas dark past. For these young skaters, it is a chance to learn about their history as much as it is a chance to skate where no skater has gone before.

Pocko is an independent press and a creative agency based in London (and now also in Milan). As legend goes, Pocko was a Hungarian acrobat and the first person to cross the Niagara Falls walking on a tight rope. She was a fearless risk-taking individual who never looked down.

The new website was a complex undertaking and encompassed effectively managing and displaying over 45 artist portfolios and 23 pocket size pocko books already been published by Pocko. Iaminawe planned and implemented a web system and strategy that allows Pocko and the numerous artists it represents to easily keep the high quality artwork on the site up to date.
