Aeon = an immeasurably or indefinitely long
period of time. Well that might be what aeon means according to the dictionary
but in reality, in the world of street art it has taken this australian only a
short while to cover london, from north to south, east to west in his unique
take on graf stickering.

The art of stickers started with graf and
has only recently been taken by the world of illustrators and artists, but a few
people have been keeping the graf side on lock, and aeon is one of those heads.
All over london you can see his signed for stickers coated in bright montana,
but lately he has been venutring into posters, and of course his usual graf…
but as soon as something good happens, sods law comes into effect, and no sooner
has he arrived and made a dent on the scene in london, then he’s off, back to
australia because of university and visas. So really this is a celebration and
retrospective of aeon’s london street campaign. Viva SDM!

How did you get started in creating art for the street?

I got into Graffiti at a young age. My parrents split when I was young
and I would have to take the long journey to Belgrave to see my Dad every
weekend.  I saw heaps of amazing graff allong the train lines and got into it
like that. When I left Melbourne there wasn’t many people doing street art. I
traveled to Thailand and wanted to get up. I knew that it was two years in jail
for a spliff so I didn’t want to chance it with gaff. I went to a newsagent and
brought a packet of blank stickers to draw on and stick up.  From then on I
haven’t stoped. When I got to London I realized that there was a sticker scene.
So I tried my hardest to get up so I could meet people.

What
other street artists do you most admire and why?
SDM crew, D*face,
PMH, The London Police, Solo one, Miss Van, The Finders Keepers crew , Tusk 2
and all the people I put stuff up with. I love it when you walk around and see
stuff by all your friends from different parts of the world.

/>What’s your favorite city, neighborhood, or block, to post and/or to see
street art?
Melbourne and London especialy Shorditch because there is
on place like home! Barcelona, Prague and Amsterdam and also Dublin because it
is so easy.

What inspires you now?
All my friends. All
my graff mates and all my street art mates are allways up for getting up. That
makes things move on a lot faster because you want to try new things all the
time. I hate sitting on an idea for too long.

What are you
currently working on? Can you give us a sneak peek?
It’s allready up!
I had a new graff style that I have just painted and I’ve been painting
newspaper and posting them up around London. This is as new as it gets. They
are both fresh off the press.
