Ten projects from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts propose solutions for a sustainable future

A project that explores what the British Museum would look like after returning its artefacts to their countries of origin and a carbon-neutral school made from rammed earth are included in our latest school show by students at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts.

The projects aim to create a more sustainable, environmentally friendly and democratic society by focusing on the United Nation's sustainable development goals.

Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts

School: Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts Course: Architecture and Design

School statement:

"Students at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts address the most significant challenges we face as a global community today. The curriculum is rooted in research, practice and artistic development. For the past five years, the academy has added a strategic focus on the 17 UN sustainable development goals (SDGs).

"We believe that the SDGs can inspire our students to consider how we should design and build in the future, using a holistic perspective to provide new, original and necessary global solutions to these pressing concerns.

"The work of our students demonstrates how architecture and design can create visions, new knowledge and solutions to complex problems in compelling and attractive designs. Future generations of architects and designers, like those we educate at the Royal Danish Academy, must be capable of releasing this vast potential."

The Silo Island by Mia Baltzer Nielsen and Vitus Karsten Bjerre

"Silos are tall towers that are used to store grain. This project is based on an old industrial area in the Port of Odense, known as the Silo Island. The buildings here are scheduled to be demolished to make room for the construction of new blocks of flats.

"By involving the buildings' distinctive character, the graduates create spaces that utilise the silos' potential in terms of material usage, space allocation and scale.

"The students have developed a master plan for the area and base their project on transforming a specific silo, which they convert into spaces for the city's citizens and The Royal Danish Theatre Ballet School."

Students: Mia Baltzer Nielsen and Vitus Karsten Bjerre Course: MA Architecture, Cultural Heritage, Transformation and Restoration Tutors: Christoffer Harlang Email: mia_baltzer[at]hotmail.com and vituskarsten[at]gmail.com

The Collector by Therese Sirenius

"The Collector is a personal, artistic project that materialises time through the art of weaving. Using the experiences and topics that have filled the recent months of Sirenius' life, she philosophises about the concept of time in her textile tapestries. This includes the time in which we exist, the time that passes and the time spent performing the craft.

"The depictions rendered in this tapestry include excerpts from a newspaper and illustrate the contrast of our time between nature and human indolence."

Students: Therese Sirenius Course: MA Design, Textile Design Tutors: Kjetil Aas Email: sireniustherese[at]gmail.com

NeoAtlantis by Mikkel Møller Rosendal

"Through his project, Rosendal explores the interface between the digital and physical worlds. He examines how we can understand and cope with the simultaneous presence of two spatial entities.

"How do digital spaces affect the way we perceive the world, and how do we translate conditions from the digital space into the physical: weightlessness, space without gravity, surfaces without a body?

"Rosendal examines these questions through his artistic models and drawings that arise where the two worlds converge, which he entitles NeoAtlantis."

Student: Mikkel Møller Rosendal Course: MA Architecture, Architecture, Space and Time Tutors: Kristine Annabell Torp Email: m.m.roesdahl[at]gmail.com

The Empty Museum by Rotem Yitzhak Soaye

"What would the decolonised British Museum look like after returning all the objects in its collection to their countries of origin?

"This project speculates on a future scenario, where the exhibition halls contain only black holes on yellow backgrounds.

"Each black hole represents a void in the heart of a looted culture, as well as the museum's missing artefacts. Instead of physical objects, the visitor experiences the cultural artefacts in augmented reality when scanning the black holes. This scenario is a far cry from today: the British Museum has around eight million objects, of which only one per cent are on display."

Student: Rotem Yitzhak Soaye Course: MA Design, Graphic Communication Design Tutors: Nikolaj Knop Email: rotem.soaye[at]gmail.com

On Civic Grounds by Daniel Rea Kragskov

"The project uses an old industrial zone in Herlev – a suburb in Copenhagen suburb – as its point of departure where industrial buildings are to be demolished to make room for new housing development.

"Kragskov proposes a new creative programme that transforms an old asphalt factory into a civic space with open areas and whose architecture can support civic activities. He aims to create a captivating environment in which to build social meeting spaces.

"Kragskov seeks to depart from academic austerity by developing a personal style that goes well with the multicoloured diversity and imperfection found in civic activities where the colour red depicts the social community."

Student: Daniel Rea Kragskov Course: MA Architecture, Urbanism and Societal Change Tutors: Tamara Kalantajevska Email: danielkragskov[at]gmail.com

Community by Julie Hendel Hunter Astrup

"What do you carry in your everyday bag? What is your favourite colour combinations? Which of these materials do you prefer?

"All of Astrup's designs emanate from her democratic way of working. She uses her community – family, friends, business partners – as sources of inspiration in developing her work.

"Her bags are made of second-hand, surplus materials. Recycled materials often produce a rough expression which she combines with a sophisticated design. For instance, she has made a bag from used lorry covers, inspired by the woven pattern of French bistro chairs."

Student: Julie Hendel Hunter Astrup Course: MA Design, Fashion Design Tutors: Ann Merete Ohrt Email:julie_hendel[at]hotmail.com

School of Ecological Crafts by Jonatan Møller Larsen, Christoffer Bo Haaning and Simon McNair

"This project proposes a School of Ecological Crafts where it is possible to study eco-friendly building techniques. The building in the Nordhavn district of Copenhagen embodies ecological building solutions. The graduates have developed a carbon-neutral building that uses nothing but rammed earth and wood for its walls and structural components.

"The soil they use is taken from the vast earthworks found in the local Nordhavn harbour area, deposited there from the excavation works for the construction of Copenhagen's metro system. The school showcases experiments exploring building techniques and how to bridge the gap between the tradition and the potential."

Student: Jonatan Møller Larsen, Christoffer Bo Haaning and Simon McNair Course:MA Architecture, Settlement, Ecology and Tectonics Tutors: Anne Beim Email: jonatanmoellerlarsen[at]gmail.com, c.haaning[at]hotmail.com and barton.mcnair[at]gmail.com

Energy Islands as Hybrid Landscapes by Christian Kamp Iversen

"This project asks: how can power production infrastructure become natural environments? This project proposes constructing an 'energy island' – a power substation to convert and distribute energy from offshore wind farms.

"A natural environment is established on the 'skin' of the island, inspired by the surrounding typologies of coastal dunes and cliffs: the island has flat areas on which sand and vegetation can be deposited, growing into shrubs, plants and trees and enabling the areas to be used for recreational purposes. It also has steep walls suitable for birdlife. New offshore wind farms are a crucial element in Denmark's current climate act."

Student: Christian Kamp Iversen Course: MA Architecture, Landscape Tutors: Kristine Jensen Email: ckampiversen[at]gmail.com

Remote Futures by Elena Bauer and Lunia D'Ambrosio

"The pandemic has accelerated remote working worldwide and blurred the lines between the home and office. The question now is: how will remote work shape our work life in the near future?

"This design project envisions four personas in different work-life scenarios in 2030. Their workers' rights, level of competitiveness and work-life balance vary greatly from one to the next. Each persona is accompanied by speculative artefacts of the future that make their lives and conditions easier to imagine.

"The project is based on extensive research and interviews with professionals who are already working remotely today."

Student: Elena Bauer and Lunia D'Ambrosio Course: MA Design, Graphic Communication Design Tutors: Rasmus Spanggaard Troelsen and Nikolaj Knop Email: hej[at]elenabauer.de and luniadambrosio[at]gmail.com

Copenhagen Light Rail by Stefan Perriard

"Copenhagen Light Rail is a retake of Copenhagen's future light rail system.

"The project presents proposals for how an electric light rail system can be integrated into the car-free streets, enhance the aesthetic qualities of local areas and make train interiors feel inclusive for all passengers.

"The design creates a new type of social and cultural infrastructure. The individual carriages can be converted into mobile healthcare clinics and libraries travelling between the districts. The carriages can also be used as pop-up shops or exhibition spaces. The train is designed as a modular system, with a rough yet local urban look."

Student: Stefan Perriard Course: MA Design, Industrial Design Tutors: Karina Mose Email: stefan.perriard[at]gmail.com

An Adventure at Annecy

Tumblr extended edition

A few years ago, I had discovered the existence of the Annecy International Animated Film Festival in 2015 when some of my online friends had attended it. When they shared their experience on Facebook, I knew I had to go some day.

In finishing the second year of my animation course, I felt this would be the best time for me to visit, so I planned my journey, got advice on what to see and how to get around and made my way.

Annecy is a really nice city. The main building that the Festival was hosted at Théâtre Bonlieu is just across the road from the huge open air screening, the lake and a view across to the mountain range. I was stunned by how the mountains loomed in the distance everywhere I went and everyone just went about their business. Since Norwich doesn’t have a mountain range, I was just in awe of them everywhere I went. There are also a lot of colourful buildings with grand architecture, large comfy cinema theatres and startlingly blue water.

Having never been before, and being unaware of Annecy Festival traditions, I was surprised by the amount of paper planes being thrown while the cinemas filled up. It was a completely different experience to going to the cinema any other day, and was a hard time adjusting to when I returned to England and no one was throwing paper planes and the like.

The experience at Annecy was very informative, and helped develop my ideas on my practice, which is extremely useful as I enter into third year.

WHAT I LEARNT

NEW CREATIVE CONTEXTS: A shared talk with Jean-Baptiste Spieser of Teamto and Tom Box of Blue-Zoo about current and upcoming things in the industry. The Teamto talk was about the production pipeline and how it can change radically depending on productions. The Blue Zoo talk was also quite interesting as it explained how they built and overhauled their render farm, as well as how they collaborate creatively within their studio.

The Art of Visual Storytelling with WALT DISNEY ANIMATION STUDIOS: The two speakers were Nathan Engelhardt, an animation supervisor, and story artist Lissa Treiman (who had, coincidentally, illustrated the first few issues that got me hooked to the comic GIANT DAYS). This was a massively helpful talk, very much worth the wait. The two speakers talked about how to make good shots great, through the positioning of cameras to the two cores of 'greatness' in animation – truth and entertainment.

Triggerfish's MAKING REVOLTING RHYMES: Mike Buckland and Sarah Scrimgeour of Triggerfish discussed the creative process of collaborating on the production of the short film Revolting Rhymes, including compositing and rendering.

The Art and Science of RENDERMAN: Dylan Sisson of Pixar held a talk showing the developments and potential for their Renderman renderer. It opened my eyes to the scope of things that Renderman takes into consideration, such as a recent shot in a Pixar film that had over ten thousand individually rendered lights.

VIRTUAL REALITY is the future: Google Spotlight Stories had a VR station set up with new videos daily. I managed to catch the session on Thursday which presented a preview of SON OF JAGUAR (dir. Jorge Gutierrez) and ARDEN'S WAKE: PROLOGUE (dir. Eugene Chung, Jimmy Maidens). I had never understood the true potential of VR in animation until after watching these, so much so that after I'd watched them I wandered around Annecy in a daze. Arden's Wake was especially mind blowing, as you could actually walk into the setting and see it from all angles. This has made me want to experiment with VR in my own practice.

WHAT I WATCHED

THE PEANUTS MOVIE outdoor screening: Having seen this movie before in English, I was surprised at how easy to understand it was in French. The broad animation style of the movie definitely helped.

A SILENT VOICE: A rather touching story about communication, repentance and forgiveness. Quite interestingly featured sign language in animation, which to me feels like a perfect match of two things, visual language and visual storytelling.

DESPICABLE ME 3: This is the first world premiere I have ever been to, and the atmosphere was wonderful. This was without a doubt one of the most active audiences I have ever been in. Whenever a joke hit, there would be a wave of laughter and applause, when one of the characters did something cute, there was a collective 'awww', even the applause at the end of the film ended up slipping into the same beat as the music of the credits. It was wonderful.

CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS: I never read that many Captain Underpants books when I was younger, so I was pleasantly surprised with how funny this was. Much like The Peanuts Movie, it managed to capture the style of its source really well, whilst still giving it their own flair.

ZOMBILLENIUM: An adaptation of a French graphic novel. Before the film began, the crew were on stage and threw production caps into the audience. The film was very stylish, with bold colours and shapes for the characters and making the CG look 2D.

SHORTS: I caught several showings of graduation shorts and shorts in competition. I was amazed by the diversity of shorts on display, showing the talents from animators of all walk-cycles of life. Shorts that stood out to me were the following:

Wednesday with Goddard (dir. Nicolas Menard, Canadian/UK) – a humorous and existential journey as a man tries to find answers to whether or not God exists.

vimeo

When Time Moves Faster (dir. Anna Vasof, Austria) – stop motion using objects like plates and curtains to animate sequences, showing each frame being set up in real time, then speeding up the footage to bring the sequence to life.

Double King (dir. Felix Colgrave, Australia) – there is something in seeing this on a big screen that makes it all that more fun.

youtube

Nachthexen (dir. Julie Herdichek Baltzer, Denmark) – documentary short about the Nachthexen of WW2, animated in the style of Soviet posters

vimeo

The Burden (dir. Niki Lindroth Von Bahr, Sweden) – a musical stop motion based around anthropomorphic animals who are stuck in an anxious and existential space in their lives. Won this year's Cristal for a Short Film award

vimeo

Aenigma (dir. Antonios Doussias and Aris Fatouros, Greek) – a surreal trip through a painter's landscape mind-bendingly presented in 3D

Tuhi rumm (dir. Ulo Pikkov, Estonia) – stop motion of a doll in a doll house-like setting, has a mix of a nostalgic and haunting feeling

Casino (dir. Steven Woloshen, Canada) – a musical, energetic drawn-on-film animation capturing the frenetic energy of a casino

vimeo

After All – Michael Cusack (Australia) – a very poignant stop motion film about a man going through his recently-deceased mother's belongings and reliving memories he had, very heart-rendering but with the occasional splash of humour

TIPS FROM MY EXPERIENCE

Take care of yourself: In the height of summer in the south-east of France, Annecy is hot. But when you are standing, walking, waiting and surrounded by other people who are also hot, the heat becomes unbearable (so much so that my watch had condensation on it at several points). Drink lots of water, try to keep in the shade when waiting outside, remember to eat.

Learn key phrases in France: This is something I'm going to try and pick up should I go again. I used to know quite a bit of French, but having forgot most of it, struggled at points of my visit. A lot of the hosts are bilingual should you have any questions, but knowing the sound of general phrases and what they mean is helpful in a pinch.

Beat the crowd: The Festival's 'first come first seated' events will fill up fast, and the queues for the screening events might result in you not getting in if you don't book a place during ticketing. The 'first come first serve' events that I missed were with popular big names, such as a talk with Guillermo del Toro and another with the creators of The Amazing World of Gumball and Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, which I am still kicking myself over, so be sure to arrive early for those.

Patience is a virtue: The queueing process at Annecy is quite arduous, but the wait is always worth it. I got into the talk with Walt Disney Animation Studios by waiting two hours earlier. It pays off very much.

Be tactical: Annecy is a big festival in a big city. Events conflict and travel times might be longer than you expect if you are travelling by foot or if you need to retrace your steps. When it comes down to seeing a mainstream film or a studio focus talk, choose which one would be a more informative experience. This links in well with taking care of yourself too. If you haven't eaten or drank anything for a while and you are thinking of joining a queue for something that needs you to wait for an hour and a half in the sun, it's better to take care of yourself first and foremost.

If you can, go in a group: Not only will this be a 'strength in numbers' type deal, where you can book into the same events and wait together in the queue and tap out should you need to get food, but this experience is one to share if you are enthusiastic about animation and the like.

Don't be afraid to try: I hate plane travel. I knew very limited French. I have the worst sense of direction in the world at times. But I went to Annecy regardless of these things and actually had a brilliant time.

Quote

Knife’s diagnosis is particularly disconcerting because we are committed to not making mistakes we have made with our previous dogs. We believed we were giving him the best possible care and he became injured nevertheless. Dr. Baltzer explained to us that it is almost inevitable that dogs of Knife’s size, speed, and intense drive will be injured in agility. Thousands of repetitive jumps, the pounding on shoulders from A-frame contacts, and spinal contortions from high-speed weaving cannot but have detrimental effects. Dr. Baltzer told us that if she were to bring a portable ultrasound to an agility trial, we would be astounded at the number of undiagnosed soft-tissue injuries she could find. Some canine athletes have a remarkable capacity to play through their pain.

“Caring for the High Performance Dog”. Obsidian Belgian Sheepdogs (13 July 2014).

Here’s a link to the follow-up post about Knife’s recovery from bilateral supraspinatus tendinopathy.

I strongly feel that we need to have both of Bosco’s shoulders examined by ultrasound.

There is no substitute for ultrasound to diagnose soft tissue injury (except for the much more expensive MRI). I will no longer be satisfied when a vet or chiropractor explains to me some vague notion of a sprain in my dog’s leg (or neck or whatever). I want to know exactly where and how big is the injury. How else to assess whether the dog is really recovered and ready to compete?

Real Bride Diary: I’m Hair Accessory Obsessed!

I love bridal hairpieces. Floral crowns, starry hairpins, architectural combs, gemstone jewels, I’m obsessed. Choosing just one statement piece for my bridal look is proving to be far more difficult than wedding dress shopping ever was. Do I latch on to my favorite current celestial trend? Do I remind everyone that yes, I am in fact the Princess of North Sixth Street?

I’ve probably driven my best friend (you know, the bridal stylist that’s been reading your horoscope?) and mother crazy with “this one or this one?!” over the last few months so I’m taking it to you lovely readers, as a Claire Eliza Real Bride Diary plea to help me just pick one already!

Ruffle French Barrette by Lelet NY

For reference: I don’t have pierced ears, wear minimal jewelry (my two solitaire rings and an occasional white gold bangle) and always knew a veil wasn’t for me. Being deliberately minimalistic with nearly all of my bridal wardrobe (remember my bridal icon, Carolyn Bessette Kennedy?) that means my bridal headpiece can certainly make a statement.

Oh, and I just chopped half my hair off. Gasp, a bride chopping her locks off before the big day?! Listen lovelies, I can’t handle this whole “you should be doing this” nonsense, so the more Seattle contrarian I can inject into this wedding day, the better.

Celestial Star Headpieces

Clockwise, starting from top left: Hair Inspiration by Tonya Stylist via Festival Brides, Hair Comb by Luna Bea, Celestial Coronet by Jennifer Behr, Vega Bobby Pins by Jennifer Behr, Nova Bandeaux by Jennifer Behr, Callisto Moon Hair Pins by Tilly Thomas Lux.

I feel like the latest celestial bridal trend was basically invented for me. Normally I pass on whatever the latest trend is, worrying that they’ll go out of style too quickly, but I’m giddy about all the stardust sprinkling throughout the bridal industry right now.

Luna Bea’s starry hair comb is even more of an art piece than an accessory, fitting into the whole “LA fashion girl” look I’ve been drooling over lately.

Oh, and that hairdo by Tonya Stylist? Maybe my favorite edgy, bun ever – could be perfect with Tilly Thomas Lux’s bold, moon and star pins, no?

Modern, Fashion-Forward Headpieces

Clockwise starting from top left: Charlie Haircomb by Jannie Baltzer, Brit Haircomb by Hushed Commotion, Art Bridal Haircomb by Maison Sabben, Ruffle French Barrette by Lelet NY

I’m totally digging on modern, fashion-forward headpieces versus the traditional romantic pins of the past. Lelet NY wowed us at Bridal Fashion week this year – showing off her talents as a former architect with strong lines and bold metals, her Ruffle French Barrettes are beyond cool.

Also, I’ve been dreaming about these Charlie Haircombs from Jannie Baltzer ever since she shared her latest collection with us this winter. Inspired by ginkgo leaves, these organic beauties are far from literal, making them so mod.

Bridal Tiaras

Clockwise starting from top left: Desert Tiara by Untamed Petals, Chantilly Tiara by Tania Maras, Agustina de Aragon by Mimoki via Laure de Sagazan, Dried floral tiara inspiration by Hello May Magazine via Festival Brides, Couronne Temperance by Lizeron via Laure de Sagazan.

Just because I covet the whole “cool bride” vibe it doesn’t mean I don’t also want to remind everyone that I am absolutely a princess. (There can be a Queen of Cool!) Tania Maras has the whole “royal” look mastered with her Chantilly Tiara, while Lizeron goes totally avant-garde with her porcelain Temperance crown.

I’ve always had a thing for dried floral crowns (remember in My Big Fat Greek Wedding when Yaya pulls out her own bridal headpiece?! I love that scene!) and I’ve been wondering lately if I should just forgo the big purchase and DIY a dried, heirloom tiara myself? Who’s with me?!

Willowby by Watters & Desert by Untamed Petals at A & Bé Bridal Seattle photographed by Claire Eliza

While dress shopping in Seattle, I fell for this art deco Desert Tiara by Untamed Petals – just the right amount of vintage with modern copper tones.

The Final Few Favorites

MOSS Bridal Hair Pins by Maison Sabben

Part of me is still a tad wary of distracting too much from my dress, these Maison Sabben hairpins are the artful, luxe style I adore in miniature. Best of all, they come in white, giving the ultimate contrast against my dark eyes and hair.

Violet Gown & Lelet NY Headpiece photographed by Claire Eliza

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I couldn’t look away from this Lelet NY headband when we visited Trish Peng at Bridal Fashion Week (rumor has it, the headpiece will be available in July). My mother and I both agree that we’ve never seen anything like it – utilizing the star trend in a 1920’s fashion, this headpiece is certainly a “head turner”.

Couronne Hermine by Lizeron via Laure de Sagazan

Finally, it helps to be able to envision what you might look like with a certain accessory, right? With basically the same dark features, olive skin and even hair length, I dropped everything when I saw this Lizeron tiara on our trip to Laure de Sagazan’s bridal studio. I love the way that this porcelain piece could have been designed now, or a hundred years ago – making this headpiece a timeless heirloom to pass down for generations to come.

Want to truly help me decide? Head over to our Instagram Stories today and vote for your favorites!

Find more headpieces in our bridal accessories section. And follow along with my Real Bride Diary (six more months to go!)

Differentiation of Intrahepatic Cholangiocellular Carcinoma from Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the Cirrhotic Liver Using Contrast-enhanced MR Imaging

Publication date: Available online 26 July 2017 Source:Academic Radiology Author(s): Georg J. Wengert, Pascal A.T. Baltzer, Hubert Bickel, Patrick Thurner, Julia Breitenseher, Mathias Lazar, Matthias Pones, Markus Peck-Radosavljevic, Florian Hucke, Ahmed Ba-Ssalamah Rationale and ObjectivesThis study aimed to investigate the potential of contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging features to differentiate between mass-forming intrahepatic cholangiocellular carcinoma (ICC) and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in cirrhotic livers.Materials and MethodsThis study, performed between 2001 and 2013, included 64 baseline magnetic resonance imaging examinations with pathohistologically proven liver cirrhosis, presenting with either ICC (n = 32) or HCC (n = 32) tumors. To distinguish ICC form HCC tumors, 20 qualitative single-lesion descriptors were evaluated by two readers, in consensus, and statistically classified using the chi-square automatic interaction detection (CHAID) methodology. Diagnostic performance was assessed by a receiver operating characteristic analysis.ResultsThe CHAID algorithm identified three independent categorical lesion descriptors, including (1) liver capsular retraction; (2) progressive or persistent enhancement pattern or wash-out on the T1-weighted delayed phase; and (3) signal intensity appearance on T2-weighted images that could help to reliably differentiate ICC from HCC, which resulted in an AUC of 0.807, and a sensitivity and specificity of 68.8 and 90.6 (95% confidence interval 75.0–98.0), respectively.ConclusionsThe proposed CHAID algorithm provides a simple and robust step-by-step classification tool for a reliable and solid differentiation between ICC and HCC tumors in cirrhotic livers.

Update: Tiger Beer and WWF Join Forces to Fight Illegal Tiger Trade

- Partnership begins with a donation of USD 1M to WWF and a digitally-led campaign harnessing the power of art to raise awareness and fight illegal tiger trade

- Campaign set to launch in mainland China on 16 June 2017

- Join the movement at 3890.tiger-beer.com.cn, create your selfie art with #3890Tigers to uncage art and fight illegal tiger trade

SHANGHAI, June 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Tiger Beer and WWF are inviting people around the world to help fight illegal tiger trade and be part of 3890Tigers, a digitally-led campaign that uncages art and creativity to raise global awareness of the plight of wild tigers.

Wild tigers are globally endangered; their numbers have dropped 96 per cent in the last century from an estimated 100,000 to as few as 3,890 today. Illegal tiger trade is one of the main reasons why tigers are disappearing. More than a hundred tigers are killed each year and their parts sold for profit through international criminal enterprises. Every part of the tiger, from skin and bones, to whiskers and teeth, is exploited and used to make products such as medicine, ornamental accessories, and textiles. Today, illegal tiger trade and the wider problem of wildlife trafficking reaches an estimated USD20 billion* per year.

3890Tigers is part of a six-year global partnership between Tiger Beer and WWF in support of Tx2, a global commitment made by the governments of the 13 tiger range countries to double the world's wild tiger population to 6,000 by 2022. The six-year partnership kicks off in 2017 with a donation of USD 1M from Tiger Beer.

As top predators in the food chain, tigers play a vital role in maintaining healthy ecosystems that support many other species. They will soon disappear if nothing is done and, without tigers in the ecosystem, countless other species will be affected.

Leveraging the power of art, Tiger Beer has brought together six artists from six different countries to uncage their creativity and create unique pieces of artwork. Using Tiger Art Intelligence, a creative digital mechanism built on Artificial Intelligence (AI) principles, the public can now virtually collaborate with these artists to create their own unique versions of these striking artworks. Each selfie art generated by AI features the user's selfie alongside that of a tiger, in the artistic style of one of the six artists.

"It is an honour for us to partner WWF in support of their conservation efforts. We can't imagine a world without tigers and if they disappear, it would not only have an environmental impact, but also be a real loss for our culture. Tigers are beautiful creatures that symbolise strength, courage and power, and it's only natural that so much art in human history has been inspired by them. That is why we have chosen art as a way to express this together with our consumers. 3890Tigers brings people and artists together through technology and our goal is to inspire a global movement by empowering a generation of young people to make a stand against illegal tiger trade and make demand for products with tiger parts socially unacceptable," said Mie-Leng Wong, Global Director at Tiger Beer, HEINEKEN Asia Pacific.

"The Tx2 goal is the best chance we have to secure the future of wild tigers, but we are running out of time. If we do not take bold and collective actions now, wild tigers may not have a second chance. This campaign with artists gives each of us the power to lend our voice to tigers. Each portrait created echoes the message that illegal tiger trade needs to stop immediately," said Mike Baltzer, Leader of WWF Tigers Alive.

To be part of the movement, the public can visit 3890.tiger-beer.com.cn to upload a selfie and choose an artist to collaborate with to instantly create a one-of-a-kind selfie art generated by AI. Whether it is enigmatic street-art-meets-calligraphy, delicate paint and ink illustrations or fluttering rainbow origami, people can choose from the artistic styles of China's Hua Tunan, France's Mademoiselle Maurice, Malaysia's Kenji Chai, Russia's Nootk, UK's Nick Gentry or USA's Tran Nguyen to create their selfie art.

By sharing these selfie art on social networks with the hashtag #3890Tigers, the global community can pledge to help fight illegal tiger trade and help stop demand for products with tiger parts.

Speaking about the opportunity to use his craft for the cause, artist from the UK, Nick Gentry, adds, "As humans have become increasingly absorbed in the wonder of technology, we have now arrived at the moment where we urgently need to rediscover our connection with nature. Let's use art and technology as a force for good, to uncage creativity and inspire each other to care for the environment that we have the privilege of sharing with these beautiful animals."

To show the world just how committed they are, Tiger Beer has removed the iconic tiger from their logo for the first time in 84 years as a powerful symbol that tigers are literally disappearing photo credit: Tiger Beer

To drive home the urgency of the situation, the iconic beer from Asia will also be introducing a limited edition design in select markets, removing the tiger from its logo for the first time in 84 years, symbolising the threat of wild tigers disappearing.

The campaign will also run in other countries around the world including Malaysia, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Russia, USA and New Zealand. On 29 July 2017, Global Tiger Day, the campaign will conclude with a series of events to celebrate the support garnered from people globally over the eight-week period.

ABOUT TIGER:

Tiger Beer was born in 1932 on the streets of Singapore. A stone's throw away from the equator, its unique tropical lagering technique meant it was able to brew a beer that would keep Asia cool. In 2015, it started using the rays of the tropical sun for brewing, with over 8,000 solar panels installed on the rooftop of its facility in Singapore. Now, every Tiger Beer produced in Singapore is brewed by the sun. 2017 has also saw Tiger Beer take Air-InkTM, the world's first ink created from air pollution, to the streets of the world through creative collaborations between its inventor and the best emerging international artists. Tiger Beer is the number one premium beer in Asia, and the world's fastest growing premium beer, available in more than 50 markets across the globe.
