VS.YOUNG TALENTS
HANS BOODT.We would like you to meet 5 students of the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. Why? Because they’ve used the platform of Hans Boodt as a format for their fanciful magazine. And as a creative company, we always encourage young talent!In the second year of their studies Lifestyle & Design, they devised the concept for a magazine under the guidance of photographer Ari Versluis. With “identity” as a central theme, the quirky characters of our mannequins obviously couldn’t be missing in the editorial of Awkward Magazine, Issue M1015. With pride we present the result!
6. Hans Boodt #4
AKWARD MAGAZINE.Our curiosity was aroused while shooting the Street Style section for Awkward Magazine. We visited the Nishicon convention in Haarlem, where Japanese comic and cartoon fans came together, dressed as their favorite character. Amused, fascinated and moved, we listened to their stories. It was so much more than just a big dress up party. You could actually feel the love in the air! That brought us to an important question: who or what determines your identity? What defines you? Your hobbies? Your favorite anime character maybe? Even the code on your buttocks? The driven people at Hans Boodt take matters into their own hands and manage to create a diversity of characters. Is this also possible with real humans? In other words, is it possible to actually create or change an identity of a breathing human being? On the other hand, mannequins don’t breathe, do not have genitals and sometimes don’t even have a real face. Does this mean a lack of identity? We doubt it… Find out and enjoy reading!

Beat union Interview
Beat unionHans Boodt’s exclusive interview with one of Europe’s most popular and most discussed rockbands!
“We just want to say: Express yourself in any way you like and be all you can be”
“First of all; congratulations on your new album! Is it going to be another hit record?”
“Sounds logical. So what ex-actly is the message you want to send out to your fans?”
Interviewna
How many Beat Union fans
are there in the world to-
day? The number grows every
day as more and more people
discover this unique British
underground band that not only
has a massive effect on to-
day’s music business, but also
managed to create a whole new
fashion scene. Their statement
is clear: ‘be free of judgment and
rules and ignore all clichés!’

“We want to challenge young
people to be pure in an im-
pure world. Don’t just follow
the crowd, but dare to be dif-
ferent. Music is a great way
to create your own world and
that also involves creating
an identity in life. We just
want to say: express yourself
in any way you like and be all
you can be. If your next door
neighbour doesn’t approve of
your lifestyle, so be it. It’s
YOUR life!”

“How does it feel to be such an inspiration for young people?”
“Well, it’s sort of a mixed
feeling really. It’s obviously
a
a
very exciting but it’s also
terrifying at the same time.
We stimulate freedom of ex-
pression but we’re also aware
of the fact that we’re sort of
creating a new scene. There’s
a danger in that, because it’s
been proven that people usu-
ally just want to fit in some-
where. On the other hand, we
represent a group of people
that hasn’t found an outlet
to relate to or identify with
so from that point of view
we’re sort of a safety net for
certain people. And of course,
that’s a good thing!”

“Well, we’ll just have to
wait and see. This album is
very different from our pre-
vious one, so we have no idea
what the effect will be on our
fans. The thing about suc-
cess is there’s always a por-
tion of people who don’t want
you to chance. That puts you
in a strange position because
we’re always hungry to try new
things. That’s what we do!
We do our own thing and send
out the message we believe
in. If people don’t like it,
that’s part of the game. Our
game! But we think it’s our
best album so far, so we have
our hopes up (laughs).”

“We want to get better rather than to get bigger!”
“True. People sometimes need a helping hand to find their identity. What inspires you guys?”
“Do fashion and style play a role in your success?”
“London has a fantastic underground world where you’ll find us as much as we can”
“That’s a difficult one to
explain. We try to cre-
ate our own identity and our
style is definitely a huge
part of that. It’s not just
what you wear though, it’s
also how you wear it. As we
said before: we don’t follow
the crowd and we dare to be
different. People seem to like
that about us so you may con-
clude that our style is part
of our success. But we nev-
er expected to create a whole
new fashion scene (laughs).
I guess it’s the world we
live in. When do you become

“That’s difficult to express
in words, because our inspi-
ration comes from all the
little things. London has a
fantastic underground world
where you’ll find us as much
as we can. But we also like to
watch a good fashion show. We
obviously don’t copy styles,
on the contrary even. But we
do want to see what drives
people: the bars they go to,
the music they listen to, the
clothes they wear... With-
out even knowing, that’s the
best inspiration you can get!”

a fashion icon? There’s no
straight answer to that. Look
at Gaga: the crazier she does,
the more people adore her. I
meana, come on... If wearing
a meat dress is fashion, then
everything is possible. And
maybe that’s exactly the mes-
sage people want to hear.”

“Good point. Doesn’t that
massive influence scare you
sometimes?”
might answer the question
right. It’s not about look-
ing good, it’s about feeling
good and if looking good makes
you feel better then my advise
would be: choose your outfit
wisely (laughs again)!”

“Not really. Gaga’s message
had nothing to do with en-
couraging people to wear a
meat dress. She wants to shock
people and by doing that she
points out that “Not really.
Gaga’s message had nothing to
do with encouraging people to
wear a meat dress. She wants
to shock people and by do-
ing that she points out that
the only style you can cre-
ate is your own style. Don’t
get us wrong; we don’t feel
the urge of shocking people
and we definitely don’t want
to be remembered by our cra-
zy clothing. We just want to
make great music and for that,
you need to feel good about
yourself and I think that

“So what can we expect from
you guys in the future?”
“Tricky one. Never try to pre-
dict the future! Let’s put it
like this: we will keep on do-
ing what we love and we’ll try
to get better every day. For
us, it’s not about the fame
or about getting bigger. It´s
about getting better and we´ll
just have to see where that
leaves us in the next couple
of years. We try not to forget
to enjoy every minute of our
success because we realize how
lucky we are. But we also won’t
adjust to what people expect
from us, because then we would
simply betray ourselves. So
let’s just hope that standing
out from the crowd will be the
new ‘normal’ standard from now
on.”
“It´s about getting better and we´ll just have to see where that leaves us in the next couple of years.”
