Sadhu - The A's to Our Q's:
Wooster: How did you get started in creating art for the street?
Sadhu: first time it was with very large posca, i had found a very smooth wall and really enjoyed trying big calligraphies..few months later i took out some stencils from old drawingboard made years ago,for tee shirts and tried them on a wall. arrived in paris i began making some posters, but not as much as i would like!
Wooster: What other street artists do you most admire and why?
Sadhu: blek le rat for the choice of drawings, places and sizes of the pieces -- but my favourite is banksy, the Brain and the Hand, completly respectfull! but there's many others
Wooster: What's your favorite city, neighborhood, or block, to post and/or to see street art?
Sadhu: paris 20eme arrondissement
Wooster: What inspires you now?
Sadhu: the" art nouveau" not only for the design and the ornaments, because it doesn't make difference between art and artcrafs, architecture, advertissements...specially Mucha, whom i use sometimes drawings; but my work uses old photographies, lot of populary pictures from differents ages and places..and everything i see outside makes me think
Wooster: What are you currently working on? Can you give us a sneak peek?
Sadhu: i m working on an exhibition that should be in november, le pravda gallerie in paris, thanks to aurelie, so i works on canvas, watercolourpapers, kraft.... in deepth, i think how to make my work go on..you can go and see http://bloodymariehell.free.fr/
