FLUFFY TOWN

There was once Alpha House, its sketch-Club, and all around a big city full of sky scraped by concrete and glass, and in between, other 'itch-hickers' taking over galleries and the street! I'm going down, down, down, down... to Fluffy Town!

Freeberberman, mate...

31 Australian people appeal to their Minister of Immigration,Kevin Andrews, for him to grant a visa to Mohand Limani, democrat threatened in Algeria, and his fellow sportsman Mourad Tifrani.
Mohand is a wood-carver and taekwondo teacher; he carves traditional Berber motives on wood; he's thus reinventing a millenary artisanal tradition, requiring a patience and precision he excels in, with a contemporary artistic touch linked to his own sensitivy. Some pieces are purely ornamental, others become precious pieces of furniture. Indeed, Mohand's art reflects a mastery of both the hand and spirit he also puts in practice in taekwondo, a martial art of which he's an international champion.
