Slowball // Preparation Day / Tallinn

wheelsbywovka-donatebanner-6

Slowball is an event that is completely opposite to Gumball, except the similarity in the name. You won’t find any expensive cars or glamour here. On the other hand, diversity and artistic expression goes through the roof.

2. Idea is simple: bunch of guys & gals with artistic talents bought 20+ cheap wheels and visually customised them.

10. Maybe they will even have a contest for the best car. My vote would go to Jarmo Nuutre’s Omega

11. On the other hand, if they are positioned as art, you can’t judge it this way

12. I like that guys are doing mixed media

14. I believe that event is open for entries and I hope someone gets a BMW and paints it properly, so it could be considered as an unofficial BMW Art Car.

15. It’s not the first time event is happening, for example, in 2013, Estonian artist Okeiko was driving this Lada.
