We're positive people but every now and then the rain gets to us. In such a case, there is no better remedy then doing an interview with a good spirited artist like Chase. Chase knows what we're talking about! He traded in the rainy days of Antwerp for the sunrays in Los Angeles. Now, LA is his homebase from where he spreads his uplifting and thoughtful messages in the form of murals filled with colorfull creatures. So go ahead, let yourself be inspired and let the sun shine!
If there is one thing we've learned, it's that you can't get the street out of the streetartist and you can't keep 'em of the streets either. The Dutch artists I AM DOOM proves it to it once again. Intrigued by the world of streetart in his younger years, he still grew up to become a lab researcher. Luckily, he couldn't let his creative aspirations die, and went on to pursue a career in design. Part of the mysterious collective Bwrah Bwrah, he remains roaming these streets, spawning his creatures.
How did we do this? Well actually we didn't yet, TCB did. But he hooked us up with something that almost gave us tears of joy: The CFYE collapsable light stencil, complete with manual and examples in a great looking instruction booklet. Besides that, he also made a video tutorial for the ones who don't like reading. Break in abandoned buildings, go deep into the forest or paint your windows black. Whatever you do, make sure it's dark for the first part of TCB's light painting 101's:
We first laid eyes on the work of Nest da Foe in Barcelona last year, and decided to look him up to find out what this German based artist is up to, and what keeps him busy. With other words, we spammed him! Please have a look and see what he has to say in SPAM! with Nest da Foe.
Lately our mailbox has been flooding with spam! Not the right one, but Chinese spam, which we @ CFYE do not really understand. Luckily the SPAM! we send out gets answered too! So get ready for a brand new shiny CFYE original SPAM! interview with BUSTART. If the name Bustart rings a bell, that wouldn't be surprising. We recently dedicated an article to the Xstreets Collective exposition, of which Bustart is a member. Besides that you can't walk the streets of Amsterdam withouth seeing one of his stickers, stencils, pieces or paste-ups. The same probably goes for Basel, Swiss, home of Bustart and his brother Pingu, also active in streetart and member of the collective. But enough from us, read on for some Spam!
