Nicoline Van Harskamp, a Dutch artist was a Beck's Futures Finalist in 2004 with her Guide to London Guards. As a result of this show at the Institute of Contemporary Art (ICA) we collaborated on a project that was featured in a group show called ON Patrol in De Appel Gallery, Amsterdam in 2005.
'ON Patrol examines the many different systems that police our society, from traditional investigatory techniques to the invisible practices of gathering and classifying (personal) data that have become a form of social control.'
The uniform was a hybrid version of a uniform and street wear. We created a logo that was combination of the Nike swoosh and a compulsory 'security V' that all uniforms in the Netherlands have attached to indicate 'safe'.
