FINSTA - STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN
Untitled

what's the idea behind your piece?
The guy in the picture looked old, sad and bold. He needed some happiness and some hair in his life. He got the Finsta extreme makeover, using the Finsta Hair Spray.It is like a commercial showing before and after.

what's your favorite thrift/antique/vintage store find?
Its hard to find good thrift stores in Stockholm. You have to hit the countryside to find cool stuff for cheap. I like thrift-markets in the streets better than the stores.

what contemporary artists are you inspired by?
I like to look at graffiti, tags, throwups and old-school graff. But the most things I get inspired by are not contemporary.

last piece of art acquired?
I dont buy alot of art. I have posters and other stuff on my walls.

tell the audience what movie, book, album, website, tv show, and magazine you love that most people haven't seen/read/heard?
Some albums:
MC Eiht - We come Strapped
Jah Shaka & Twinkle brothers - Dub Salute 5
A movie:
Stand by me (watch it again!)

schooled or self taught artist?
I am a bit of both. I just graduated Master in Graphic Design and Illustration, but I wouldnt be shit if I didnt teach myself.

favorite place in your town?
I like to be at home. Not all the time.

favorite place in the world?
San Fransisco Mexican burrito-place

any advice you can pass onto aspiring artists/designers?
Think objective. "What am I really doing? and why?"
