THE CREATIVE RESONANCE OF JOE NAMY

Olivetones is an online retrospective of various artistic projects I've had the honor of creating. These images/sounds are reflections from multi-media expressions reverberating social progression and cultural empowerment, resisting oppression and injustice, and promoting independent thought and action.

AVAILABLE FOR FREELANCE COMMISSIONS

Olivetones is always looking for new ways to exercise and challenge the visual and aural creative thought process. From book covers to murals, music to video, interdisciplinary originality and perfection is always diligently pursued. Feel free to contact me directly with your project idea.

DESTROY THE WALLS!

[Click to Enlarge]
Created this for a flyer promoting the concert 'Pick Up The Mic, Break Down The Walls!" as part of the NY Israeli Apartheid Week.

The image is a reappropriated NY Times photo, the calligraphy is hand written.

If you wanna see some of the freshest most inspiring calligraphy ever, click here and here, the latter of which I had the honor to study under, tho only for about two weeks, and honestly I was like his worst student ever. But he was perhaps the most peaceful, patient, and anal-retentive teacher I've had, yet he taught me so much about arabic calligraphy and design in general during those two little weeks, concepts I'm still grappling with two years later.
