No.2 - The A’s to Our Q’s:



/>Wooster: How did you get started in creating art for the street?
/>
"left">No.2: i have always been fascinated by the street and interactions
with it. Skateboarding was my first occasion to interact with the urban figure.
Later people around me would promote stickers everywhere while keeping the
oppositions between anonymous and personnal. they maintain this paradoxal effect
by marking their space without following any rules, being self critical and free
in choices of their creations. 

Wooster: What other street
artists do you most admire and why?

No.2: "http://www.obeygiant.com">Shepard Fairey for those posters and the fact thy
are everywhere, their colours (red, white and black) that catch the eye. Dave
Kinsey for his characters so particular and his way of incorporating them in
urban decor and many others.

Wooster:
What’s your favorite
city, neighborhood, or block, to post and/or to see street art?

/>No.2: New york city, Paris, Amsterdam and the towns in the north of
Europe

Wooster: What inspires you now?

No.2:
Being a citizen of the world, the international situation inspires,
unfortunately a not so bright futur (but i’m not the only one). Being an actor
of urban life, the fact that i can express myself even more than before. I
believe both obviously linked. Using images and colour that seizes the attention
(old publicities inspire me a lot :like the head i am currently using ot the
muscle car). They are currently representative of my state of mind. The three
colours i use are red, white and black, because they have the purpose to catch
the eye. The propagandists have already analized this effect and use it before
me.
