För ganska så länge sedan så tog jag kontakt med en av mina stora konstnärliga inspirationskällor. Konstnären heter Ghost Patrol och jag har skrivit om honom tidigare här på Kulturkompaniet. Jag tyckte att han borde ställa upp i en intervju för Kulturkompaniet, vilket han nappade på. Tyvärr blev det en ganska så kort och enkel intervju, men här kommer iallafall resultatet:
Tell us a little about yourself
artist based in melbourne.
For how long have you been painting?
i’ve been drawing all my life, but only painting recently
How did you get into painting?
No grande story, just playing around and exploring colouring drawings and learning to use spraypaint
What is your influences?
My influences are (like most artists) very broad. Almost everything I experience can be cited as an inspiration. I’m surrounded my contemporaries that push me along. I’m also fascinated by deep space exploration, anime and natural history.
How do you think your style has developed since you started painting?
i feel more comforatble about my drawing and energised about the future.
What’s your favorite medium/tools?
pencil and paper, oh and watercolour, though sometimes spraypaint on walls.
What is your most memorable moment as an artist?
the future++++++
As I know you’ve been doing a lot of street art through your career:
What’s your view on the street art scene of today?
mixed, the experience of street art is best left to personal experience, and avoiding hype and other attachments.
How do you think people interpret your art?
i like the idea of peopl emaking up there own story abuot my artwork, without telling them the ‘true’ idea or intention.
Will we be able to see your work in Europe any time soon?
maybe – there’s stuff around europe if you look hard enough
Any shout outs?
