Jan Kallwejt










with fantasy and sesnse of humour - I introduce Jan Kallwejt. young illusrtator and graphic designer based in Warsaw. he is running his own one person studio, mainly creating logos and illutrations. in the society he is well known for his controversial and funny t-shirt designs, but he is also involved in alot of projects for big corporations. style reflected in Jan's work is defined by hip-hop culture, street art and japanease manga. prowocative work is full of icons, popculture symbols, and breaking stereotypes. and all of this is beautifully packed in colorful, sharp illustrations. best example showing his attitude and style is design created relating to Olympics in Bejing, where ''three wise monkeys'' have been changed into people to represent the human rase. hear no evil, speak no evil and see no evill, have been used to show the ignorance of the whole world about ruler of democracy and braknig the human rights in Bejing. he is regurally toughing different issues in present society. one of his designs shows pictograms - the ones used to mark ladies and gents toilets - changed into transsexuals. his funny, sharp and colorful illutrations are something new and fresh in the world of illustration.
