Emerging artists, designers and illustrators across Europe were invited by YCN to create their own interpretation of the idea and to upload it to a special project website. From here Knight and his team selected a group to have their work shown at Art Basel, alongside his work and the work of his original 11, and to collaborate with Knight on a special creative project.
We produced a number of elements to support the project. These included a series of Live Art Events taking place at creative agencies, art & design colleges and other special venues around London. At these events two teams of artist create a football inspired artwork onto two halves of a specially produced canvas over 90 minutes. 11 advocates were also recruited by YCN to produce bespoke work and host a series of trainer design iD sessions at Nike Town London.
Additionally we have worked with James Dawe to create twenty unique, and football inspired, collages for distribution at a press day.
