Profile—Space 11:34
If you walk around lower Manhattan
(especially Nolita, Soho, and the Lower East Side) you can’t help but come
across Space 11:34’s stencil painted stickers. We’ve been intrigued by them for
years. We were thrilled when Space 11:34 intorduced himself to us in an email
last week.

Space 11:34 - The A’s to Our Q’s:
Wooster: How did you get
started in creating art for the street?
Space 11:34:
don’t really know. started doing it cause it was something to do, now it
completly took over my life.
Wooster: Why Space
1134?
Space 11:34: before graff i focused my art on
outer space looking scenes. 1134 or ETF represents the hell we all created and
now live in. if u step back and see what the human race has created and dwells
in its pretty fucked up. we are all robots being controlled by society, even if
u dont want to admit it we are all slaves. thats why i respect hobos. and thats
why i graff. cause authority hates it and CANNOT CONTROL IT! search and
destroy!
Wooster: What other street artists do you
most admire and why?
Space 11:34: all the people
that do it cause they feel like they have to. any one can paint in their
studio, but the people who get up a lot on the streets, u know their the real
atists. those peple who paint cause they think hip hop is cool really piss me
off. they are in it for the wrong reasons..
Wooster:
What’s your favorite city, neighborhood, or block, to post and/or to
see street art?
Space 11:34: lower manhatten is a
scene. but i really enjoy spotting the hobo graffiti on freights. its a totally
different scene.
Wooster: What inspires you now?
/>
Space 11:34: the curious folks, who dont know about
graff. i like to make their eyes open up.
Wooster:
What are you currently working on? Can you give us a sneak peek?
/>Space 11:34: deathly ink recipes, and fucked up damaging
homemade markers. and the regular stuff ment for the public eye.
