Artist of The Month: Eye Saw

March 17, 2009

Covering one half of the 4th wall and the front of our monthly flyer this month is Eye Saw. So staying with tradition with fired over a few questions about his background and put up a few of his other pictures. In what we like to call the Artist of the Month slot.

“I was really into graffiti as kid, i got into a lot of trouble drawing and painting on things that i shouldn’t have… not a lot has changed there.”

“Anyways i got this book “stencil graffiti” from my sister for my birthday one year, i was amazed at what i saw the detail the humour the pure amount of information you could put in one stencil the size of a A4 piece of paper.”

“I remember cutting my first stencil it took hours to cut it was only a smiley face with a spliff it had some text at the bottom that read “puff puff give”, I went out and sprayed it on a wall down the road from my house only to find out the stencil was the wrong way round and the text was backward.. its still there now and always raises a smile every time i see it.”

What drives you artistically?

Everything around me the world and its inhabitants

Who of your contemporaries, if any, influence your work?
ADAM NEATE, BANKSY, SEEN, MODE 2, MARTHA COOPER… I could go on all day here… I am influenced by so many artists everything I see I look at and think how did they do that? how did they achieve this effect? why did they use this medium?

What really pisses you off?

Lazy Bullshiters, people that say there going to do this and that then never get off there arse and a do anything, If ya gonna talk the talk then at least stand up..
What makes you really happy?
Finally getting home spending time with my family and chilling out, safe in the knowledge all my work is done for the day.
