The Human Scrapbooking Experience landed on a battleship, and Philly immediately understood the assignment.

We brought our collection of vintage rubber stamps, handmade blacklight bodypaint, glow stickers, and glitter as a main stage installation aboard the battleship. Thousands of people came through the event, and the reaction was immediate:

“I don’t know what this is, but I’m IN!”

AAfter sixteen years of bodypainting across the country, we finally brought the art to the most famous battleship in history. A glowing creature world emerged on the deck, dancers went wild, and the crowd locked into the Human Scrapbooking energy instantly.

We cracked Charlotte wide open this summer with the Human Scrapbooking Experience. Philly booked it and everyone said hell yes. We loved every minute of it.

Much respect to the crews behind this massive night:
