laser 3.14 and the Levi’s® back pocket project

Levi’s® back pocket project
Check it our here: www.levisbackpocketauction.com

The Levi’s® back pocket project has already proven to be a tremendous success in Belgium, but the Dutch counterpart is now entering its final stage and is about to cause an even bigger buzz!

Levi's® has invited artists from the most diverse disciplines –but all breathing the spirit of the brand- to add their personal touch to the classic back pocket, resulting in precious little works of art by artists like lingerie-designer Marlies Dekkers, TV-host and actress Sophie Hilbrand, fashion designers Daryl van Wouw and Bas Kosters, visual artist Ottograph, band members from Voicst, Direct and Moke, and ‘must see’ underground artists. From January 29 the pockets will be on display at CoffeeCompany, 153 Van Woustraat, Amsterdam. From February 14 they will pop up in other CoffeeCompany shops all over the city. Last chance to see them: Levi’s® Store Kalvertoren, from February 27 until March 31.

HELP ME UNDERSTAND

See the meaning of reason coming in
See walls come down and betray you
See lepers being healed
See the lips being sealed
See history being excavated
See lies being devastated
See the fall of rules
See the Oriole sing the blues

See to coming a new dawn
See the old one going down with a yawn
See the reapers sharpen their knifes
See the pacifist battle for his life
See the arteries being ripped to shreds
See the living wander the Earth dead
See intransigence on the evening news
See the Oriole sing the blues

See how reason’s fading fast
See how hate seems built to last
See the third nail of the crucifixion
See the fall of benediction
See time being placed in a noose
See the Oriole sing the blues

THE MARCHING BAND CAME OUT TO PLAY FOR US

Will you kiss these lips today?
Will you kiss these lips tomorrow?
They’re pruned and wanting
Yearning for you’re love and panting

Movement in the barley
A strange current runs through my body
A strange current runs through in my brain
Will you shy away?
Or refrain?

Embark on a journey
Side by side
We’re linked
We travel simultaneously
We’re synched

SIMPLY LIVING IS A LOT OF WORK

You’re seeing my devotion
You know about my intense devotion
You see it in the corner of my eyes
This is more than a simple tear I shed
This is more than a simple tear I cry

You see,
I’ve been here before
You now I’ve been here before
I’ll remember it for evermore

You’ve peeled off my intense devotion
You looked me right in the eyes
It sent me up the slippery slope
Got caught up in a downward slide

You see,
we’ve been here before
We know we’ve been here before
I’ve remembered it for evermore

It’s awkward and it’s painful
It grabs you right by the throat
You’re staring straight into my soul
With dilated eyes as black as a crow

You’ve gone down this road before
You know you’ve gone down this road before
I’ve remembered it for evermore

AURORA SWITCHED COLOURS

Colours
Bright colours
Real colours
Soft colours
Unexpected movements
Unexpected changes
A palette of lucid dreams

Want to grab it
Grasp it
Hold it
Harness its powers
Let it run free in my hopes and dreams
Sow the torn seam

Colours
Bright colours
Real colours
Soft colours
Unexpected movements
Unexpected changes
A palette of lucid dreams

AN ARMADA OF YOU

A diner
staring at tables
Faces indifferent
In a moment all freeze
to remain the same
Pay up
Lose the change
Shoulders shrugged
You’re out of place again
The city changed
Damaged
You’re down and out
A beating heart can only scream so loud

Dead and cold
Looking for reason between the crack of the tiles
For just a second she brushes against me
She’s reflected in a window oh so vile
Should I ask the clover?
If I’ll ever know her?

The sky changes
I linger on
In rapture and blue
Tomorrow at early light
and honeydew
