space3 - The A’s to Our Q’s:

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

space3: one of us
started with some early graff the other tried… here’s the space3 story:
Space3 started at the art academie in s’Hertogenbosch in 1994, A graphic
designer and an illustrator teamed up to do a poster for a friend who was a dj.
The collaboration worked out very well. We knew each other already from the teen
days where one of us hanged out in the graffity scene and the other try to enter
it. We met again several years later at the art academy and did some taggin
together in the streets of Eindhoven we were not that good, but we both knew we
were great on type and image on graphicly speakin terms. So after the first
collaboration for the dj poster we started space3, after hanging out in our
joint sketchin and drawing room listening to “the Ultra Magnetic mc’s “and
hearing Kool Keith’s ‘we are the Horseman enter youre spaceship’ and a graphic
simplified ufo entered the monitor on the illustrator 5 window. We made a logo
with the space ships and a new space3 type based from on chigaco “the mac type”
was invented. The graphic designer started his own practice while the
illustrator joined a post graduate study on graphic design. In between our
commissioned works we wanted to make the streets of our city visual more
attractive, we hated the big spended money advertisement campains with no visual
satisfying effect, and there only goal to sell something. Space3 wanted to
enrich the streets with graphics that were never seen before, a visual riddle
with no answer. We’ve heared a lot of comments on our graphic street
interventions: whats this crazy stuff? who are those fools? where do they come
from? what the fuck does it means? How can I get my hands on some posters? 
meanwhile we stayed anonymus and were happy with that because it gave our
actions and images more power.9 years later we practice our design studio. Next
to our work in commission we still do our street actions, meaning xeroxed or
screen printed paper, glue and fitting spots.
