So for all you guys who haven't noticed this dude yet, check out the interview and getsta supporting this legend with all the ART love!
SO SEBASTIAN LET IT BEEN KNOWN....TELL THESE ART KIDS WHERE YOUR FROM & WHERE YOUR RESIDING NOW!
I was Born in Boston Mass but I've been living in Belgium for over 20 years.
WHAT TUNE RIGHT NOW BEST DESCRIBES YOU????
One verse from Andre 3000's ' a day in the life of Benjamin Andre':
...That fella' in class who always used to draw
And never said much 'cause half of what he saw
Was so far from that place you wanna be
That words only fucked it up more, follow me..
COOOLLLL...
SO I KNOW YOUR ART HUSTLE IS IN DRAWING, ARE THERE ANY OTHER MEDIUMS YOU HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH?
Painting, drawing at the moment, though I'm working on some 3D stuff for the near
future.
SO TELL ME SOMETHING,,WHERE/WHO DO YOU DRAW YOUR INSPIRATION FROM? NAME DROP A FEW..
Life, love and any media I can find that appeals to me. Music, film, magazines, random web browsing, etc. These artists always provide inspiration as well: Egon Schiele, Lucian Freud, Manara, Norman Rockwell, Gustave Klimt, Liberatore, Eduardo Risso, Brian Azzarello, Marini, Moebius.
Oh and nice round booty!
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN MAKING ART?
Since I could hold something and put it against a surface. But it's taken quite some time for me to get to a point where I actually make pieces with a certain concept or at least pieces that I can call 'works'.
ART WISE WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN UP TO??...
Pieces for show's at the moment. I have a job to help pay the bills and outside of that I just keep working on pieces. Keep on truckin'
YESSSIIRRR!!
ARE THERE ANY PLACES, EXHIBITIONS, PEOPLE, SHOWS, GIGS, SHOWS, ARTISTS, MUSICIANS THAT YOU HAVE BEEN TO THAT HAVE INFLUENCED YOU CREATIVELY, OR ANY YOU JUST REALLY LIKED?
I saw an inspiring Ed Templeton show in the S.M.A.K. museum that was pretty amazing recently. There were about 1200 photographs and paintings that all fit together more like an installation and created a specific atmosphere.
I went to a Mos Def show that was inspirational. I just think the way he approached his career in general and kept doing his thing is very admirable. Other than that plenty of movies and books that inspire and influence me in some way or an other.
OOOOOOOH COOL OKAY.. MOVIES.. WHAT FILM DEFINES U?
Great Expectations
I can just identify the most with the main character. One of the only romantic movies I can bare to watch.
ARE THERE ANY UPCOMING EVENTS YOU ARE GOING TO BE INVOLVED WITH?
I have an expo coming up in august in Antwerp and an other one in Amsterdam in October. Then in December I'll be heading to Art Basel in Miami to see if I can get my foot in the door in some gallery and meet some interesting people. I don't have a place to expose anything yet there. I'm still working on that.
AND LASTLY THE ALL IMPORTANT QUESTION....WHAT DO YOU LOVE MOST ABOUT MAKING ART?
Everything. The act of creating and molding my own world for others to see if they choose so.
