-BHG. (the Blackheart gang, as in my…er…gang.) We’ll be launching our book in Joburg later this month at the Deer hunter store in Greenside.
Presently we are working on our newest installation piece called “the dinner party” for the Outthebox festival later this month.
Recently the Gang was invited by Jonathan Wells (founder of Resfest) to exhibit at the Scion Gallery in Culver City Los Angeles.The exhibit covered most of the Tale of How project including the film, making of films, the full print series, sculptures and our brand spanking new hot from the press Tale of How Book.
…Their latest project combines painstakingly detailed illustrations with animation and startlingly rich music for a brief cinematic experience that engages the viewer… By now the short has become somewhat of a cult classic for motiongraphics buffs and casual viewers alike….

Their piece, The Tale of How, is a stunning work of animation, printmaking, sculpture, and (why not?) opera, and illustrated the difference between their efforts and those of a major studio.
