Artists of the Month: 3Megabits
April 7, 2009
The French Trio 3megabits, triple-teamed a wall a month back. They also adorn this month’s Cargo flyers.
How did you guys end up painting together?
Fabulon : What?
Go Frida : It was at the Shunt Lounge in June 2008, Fabulon had the opportunity to exhibit some work and paint on walls. Got scared and called us…we had a great time, free drinks, met great people and decided to carry on with the trio thing.
Barth : …
What are the benefits & disadvantages to working in a trio?
Fabulon : Qu’est ce qu’il a dit?
Go Frida : It helps you to go out there and do stuff rather than just planning on doing it and moaning about not having the time or the energy. The disadvantage is that it’s a democracy and you’ve got to take into account other opinions and ideas. Some people see that as an advantage though…
Barth : …
Is there a medium you guys prefer to work in?
Go Frida : We’re trying different medium as we go along and depending on the surface but our favorite combo is paint and markers because it’s got the speed and allows a good level of detail in the drawing.
Fabulon : Stencil is cool too, it’s easy and it looks good.
Barth :…
In a fight, who out of you lot would win?
Fabulon : Quoi?
Go Frida : Me. Period.
Barth : … (smoking)
Paper, Rock or Scissors?
Go Frida and Barth : Rock!
Fabulon : We mostly use painting and markers…
