bank beside the Regent’s Canal and with Amnesty<br />
UK's Against Hate awareness campaign, where they<br />
engaged the community by staging a series of live<br />
painting events.<br />
Running such large scale and diverse projects is<br />
not for the feint-hearted. It begins with an idea,<br />
of course, and as is said, 'the devil is in the detail',<br />
including choosing and supporting the artists,<br />
planning and logistics, controlling the budget and<br />
generating media attention. Bablu and his team<br />
seem to do this effortlessly, and always with a smile<br />
and a positive attitude.<br />
Trapped in Zone One is currently hosting the<br />
exhibition, Just Type, at Hanbury Hall in Shoreditch,<br />
which is on through the 9 th of June (it's a cracking<br />
great show so go see it if you haven't already). The<br />
typography-based exhibition features new letterbased<br />
works ranging from graffiti hand-style to<br />
type illustration from some of the world’s brightest<br />
talents, including Boogie, Mr Cenz, Aches, Millsnic,<br />
Tarwane and Mr Christa. They have also launched a<br />
new range of limited edition, type-themed t-shirts<br />
in collaboration with Hackney-based Everpress and<br />
five of the artists from the show.<br />
Bablu is passionate about the arts and a fervent<br />
believer in the power of art to create opportunities<br />
for young people so it was no surprise to find<br />
him supporting the recent #Artskickers launch,<br />
collecting a plethora of comments from the<br />
audience in response to a lovely hand-lettered sign<br />
asking 'How did we make you feel today?' That<br />
community-minded spirit, along with a team who<br />
are just as passionate and committed as Bablu is<br />
inspiring; we can't wait to see what Trapped in Zone<br />
One does next!<br />
