What’s graffiti for you?
Graffiti is just a hobby, some peoples playing golf and curling, but thats kind of gay, so i got stucked in graffiti.
Tell us about your city, how is life and graffiti there?
In my city its a bit lame, we have the CSG, they are like failed cops/military. Eating Burgers and donuts, but worst of all, they drive around with skodas.. they don’t have a chance with that kind of cars ?
What keeps you still writing?
The friends i have met, the feeling when you enter that beautiful layup with a 12 pack of colors, or just a chrome and black. if i would stop writing i would have to much spare time.
What first made you interested in graffiti and how did you end up on that track?
I was in the same school class as now a pretty active writer, in the classes we sketched, he told me about missions and more.. once i tried i was stuck.
What trends are you seeing now in the graffiti world that you don’t like?
I don’t see so much that i unlike, Everything is cool, many different styles, if you go to Another country you Always finns hookups. If people comes to Sweden, i will gladly hook them up!
What do you do when you’re not painting?
Much work, tuning cars, dog, and of course the lady.. takes a lot of time haha..
How would you describe your style?
Just a regular Stockholm style, fast and easy.
Can you remember the first piece you did?
Nope
Future plans?
I Think i will start to travel more, if the work allows me, otherwise i will just paint my commuter trains in Stockholm!
What do you think about the new generation of writers in your city?
I like the new generation, some of them have a bad attitude. If they help me i help them.
What are the best and worst aspects of graffiti?
Everything is neutral.
Who do you paint for?
Myself and my squuuuuad of course.
What writers have inspired you?
The older generation inspired me, it is that generation i paint with now.
Can you ever feel tired of graffiti?
Yes, when you drive around for a whole day and get nothing done..
What do you hope people will think and feel when they see your stuff?
I want them to be motivated, it’s a good feeling when a panel coming thru a boring Monday morning. Sometimes you can make someones day like that.
