A snapshot from the Eindhoven paste-up and sticker mania. From the archives of Space 3 and Jeroen Erosie dives into the archives of a scene that helped shape the visual language of early European street art. At its heart is Jeroen Erosie, who opens up a rich collection of photographs documenting the sticker and paste-up explosion that overtook Eindhoven in the late 1990s and early 2000s—a moment often overlooked, yet pivotal.
Eindhoven played a key role in redefining how artists used the street. What began as an underground experiment quickly became a creative contagion, spreading from Eindhoven to Rotterdam and beyond. Graffiti writers, art students, and graphic designers—figures like Erosie, Influenza, Space 3, and the SOL crew—collectively forged a new visual code. Stickers and small-scale paste-ups became their tools of choice, allowing for rapid, repeatable, and often witty interventions in the urban landscape.
In this zine, the materials come from both personal and shared archives: Jeroen Erosie's own documentation, and photographs by the Space 3 duo. The images trace not just a style, but a shift—a move from name-writing to icon-making, from walls to objects, from permanence to play.
More than a look back, this is a snapshot of a formative moment—when streets became sketchbooks, printers became weapons, and a new generation of artists started to rewrite the rules of graffiti from the ground up.
