Mural "... I feel so ... incomplete" by British artist D*Face (Dean Stockton) at Platanenweg 2h in Amsterdam, Netherlands
D*Face painted a new mural that incorporates his classic combination of melancholy text, bright colors, comic book characters, and Ben-Day dots. Created in a style reminiscent of Lichtenstein, D*Face reinterprets pop art to have a darker, more sinister twist. In his most recent mural, D*Face depicts an iconically beautiful women – blonde hair, blue eyes, red lips – yet distress clearly plagues her, as a skeleton hand reaches towards her with a thought bubble reads, “…I feel so…incomplete.” D*Face highlights the shallow, superficial qualities of external beauty, noting that the woman still has the lingering emotion that somethings is lacking.

Dongfeng is the third largest Chinese maker of commercial vans and cheap MPVs after GM brands Wuling and Baojun and carmaker Changan. Dongfeng has many subsidiaries, which all operate under the Dongfeng umbrella: Dongfeng Fengshen (Aeolus) is the most high-end of the bunch, producing passenger cars including the Peugeot 508-based A9 and the funky new AX4. Dongfeng Fengdu produces its own version of the old Nissan X-Trail and two SUVs which are nearly identical to the SUVs of Dongfeng Fengshen. Dongfeng Sokon is the maker of very cheap commercial vans and is already active on the European market (DFSK). Dongfeng Fengguang and Dongfeng Fengxing fill the gap between Dongfeng Sokon on the one hand and Dongfeng Fengdu and Dongfeng Fengshen on the other. Dongfeng Fengguang is mostly aiming at the Wuling Hongguang and also produces a popular new cheap SUV as an alternative to the likes Changan CX70. Dongfeng Fengxing has a sedan, MPVs and large vans including one based on the late 1990s Mitsubishi Delica/Space Gear, while the Dongfeng Fengxing S500 and its rugged sibling SX6 are aiming at the Baojun 730 and Changan Oushang/Oushang A800/Linmax.

Description de l'œuvre
Intitulé « Looking Back », l’oeuvre de D*Face reflète la fascination de l’artiste pour la publicité et sa nostalgie de l’époque des signalétiques peintes à la main. Il a ainsi mélangé le côté Pop Art caractéristique de son style avec des lettrages faisant référence à son histoire familiale. Le texte que l’on peut en partie apercevoir en toile de fond se rapporte à l’immigration de ses ancêtres ayant quitté Montréal vers 1915.
D*FACE
Né en 1978, Dean Stockton a grandi dans une banlieue ouvrière de Londres. D*Face s’est passionné pour la culture du graffiti grâce au travail d’Henry Chalfant, un photographe et vidéaste américain, qui est célèbre pour sa documentation sur les graffitis dans les métros à New York. Il cite comme premières influences Shepard Fairey, la culture skate de Jim Phillips, la musique hip-hop et punk rock, mais aussi les dessins animés populaires.
Cobra Café cooks in Kitgum
For Combined Joint Task Force Lion by Spc. Jason Nolte, 21st Theater Sustainment Command
KITGUM, Uganda - “It’s always about the troops.” Staff Sgt. Terry Johnson’s philosophy serves the food service noncommissioned officer in charge for Life Support Area Fist during Natural Fire 10 well. Johnson, from the 9th Military Police Detachment in Mannheim, Germany, is working out of a Mobile Kitchen Trailer instead of his regular dining facility. The meal tent is named “The Cobra Café” after an encounter he had with a snake during its construction.
“My job here is to make sure the troops get fed,” say Johnson, “and making sure the troops get a meal they can enjoy and are happy with, making this mission successful.”
From Buffalo chicken to fresh fruits and vegetables, troops appreciate the effort to get hot, fresh food. When it comes to cooking and taking care of soldiers, little details can make a big difference.
“Because we’re food service, we’re the first ones up in the morning and the last ones down at night.” This is why, Johnson explains, he positioned his Soldiers’ cots near the entrances to the sleep tent, “so it’s easier for my Soldiers to get in and out of the tent without interrupting all of the other troops.”
“A typical day, we get up at 0200 in the morning and have to work until approximately 2030 at night and have to do it all over again. Pretty long days. Pretty hot days,” says Sgt. Kevin Tolefree, 554th Military Police Company. “It makes it all worthwhile when you see the morale of the soldiers when they come in and get fed , and they enjoy the chow.”
While all of the cooks working at the Cobra Café serve under the 18th Military Police Brigade, they have been pulled from different companies. That means Johnson’s team is comprised of a lot of personnel he’s never worked with before, including Tolefree.
Tolefree’s impression of Johnson so far, “He’s very demanding. He wants the right thing done regardless of situation. He’s very straight forward and by the book. All in all, he’s a good NCO”
Troops participating in Natural Fire 10 come from six different countries: Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, and the United States. While the focus of the Cobra Café is the U.S. forces, it has also hosted partnership events for the leadership of the East African partner nation militaries.
“It was a good experience seeing all the different leaders. We took pride in having fresh fruit, snacks, and juice so they could have a good meeting,” Tolefree says.
Tolefree and Johnson also went over to the Kenyan encampment recently. The experience was eye opening for Tolefree, “We have it kind of easy compared to what they do over there, but the food was good.”
