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 href="http://bloodymariehell.free.fr/">http://bloodymariehell.free.fr/
