Jacob Bannon – Jacob sings in Converge and as an artist has been part of the three Full Bleed expos at Roadburn. You may remember him as curator of Roadburn 2018.

Our photographer Justina Lukosiute shot a couple of beautiful portraits of visual artists at the Full Bleed expo at Roadburn. We simply had to present these to you as well.

This is what she has to say about the works herself:

„finding the faces behind the amazing artwork at Roadburn Festival.

the Full Bleed III room is like a parallel universe, it’s a room of shy exchange, a room one that bursts with colour, strange shapes and intricate patterns, lines and graphics woven onto the walls of it. every time I’ve stepped in so far, it has felt like a sanctuary full of respectful silence, eyes of the visitor gorging on the beauty surrounding them.

in strange contrast, a couple of figures sit around biding their time, smiling shyly. the artists. such modest, friendly people ready to shake hands and extend sincere thanks to the admirers.

every purchase you see in the Full Bleed room, is one where both parties seem to be overjoyed about the transaction – artists happy to give away a piece of their work, and buyers pleased to bring home a bit of the magic.

this is a couple of pictures I took of my favourites, who easily and happily agreed to pose. shooting for Never Mind The Hype.”
