PANTONE UB DOCS FROM VALENCIA SPAIN ANSWERED SOME QUESTIONS FOR ME-

 

1. How long have you been spraying?

 

Since 1998.

 

3. Do you have any formal art training?

 

Yes, I've studied Fine Arts. As my friend Roid says: "Art school ruined my graffiti". The story of my life…

 

4. What have you been working on recently?

 

Several exhibitions (Veneno44 http://vimeo.com/m/42672047, Estonoesgraffiti http://www.estonoesgraffiti.com/, Murciélago http://www.velvetliga.com/2012/05/murcielago-vicious-gallery.html?m=1, Moebius tribute…), and some designs.

 

5. Are you coming to the States soon?

 

Actually I don't have any plans at the moment but I'm looking forward to it obviously.

 

6. Who are your favorite writers?

 

What an awkward question, I would be leaving many of them accidentally… I'll give it a try though. The whole UB crew, Most JBCB, Egs, Nug, Petro, Buny, Spok, Rosh, Brk192, Ayer, Sien, Sobek, Kcis, Roid, Aroe, Sawe, Fasim, Relik, Coun, Ozzy, Ove, Nomad, Cyrus, Honet…***

 

Slavoj Žižek***says that love is a extremely violent act. In order to pick up who you're going to love, you must discriminate against everyone else. I didn't mean to forget a lot of people…

 

7. Whats Ground Release about?

 

It's a project based in London to promote the exchange of writers from all over the globe. Find out more on their website.

 

8. Do you sketch before you paint?

 

Only sometimes. I would like to do it more often but the truth is that the most of the times I just arrive to the wall with empty hands.

 

9. Whats your favorite surface to paint?

 

Obviously steel, but it happens only as often as I sketch before painting.

 

10. How long does it take you to do a piece like the one with your Ground Release friends?

 

That one… maybe like 8 hours?

 

11. Any last words?

 

Thanks for the interest. Keep up this good site.

 

-How did you get in to graffiti? Did you ever see "Style Wars"?

 

I started in a small town in the Southeast of Spain, where I used to

live with my parents. The whole thing was full of graffiti and I

started writing my own name spontaneously as I was a kid and I haven't

stopped for more than two weeks ever since. I saw Style Wars only

after one or two years that I started painting.

 

-Do you have a favorite piece of yours? I tend to think all my pieces

suck, or I could have done it better-

 

He, he. I don't know, not really… Some pieces I think the shape is

good, other the spot (but I wish I could have done better), etc.

 

-Do you get free paint?

 

Mostly.

 

-Favorite music? I used to think Hip Hop and Graffiti went hand in

hand but I like to channel the Jazz and Funk and Soul with my work...

 

Well, I used to think the same when I was a kid, and I still drag some

bands till today. Right now I'm listening to Tom Waits for instance,

but I listen to any genre as long as it's good shit.

 

-Would you consider yourself a "Well Rounded Graffiti Artist"?

 

Sure, my friends are the best.

 

-Why/When did you decide to become an ***"illegal graffiti vandal" and

leave the art studio/gallery life?

 

I think it is the other way around, I mean, a graffiti writer, same as

Kaspar Hauser, is raised wild and then he becomes civilized. Or like

Tarzan he never gets used to civilization and stays in the wild.

 

-How do you balance your legal paintings and your illegals?

 

Both are valid ways to get up. I don't think much wether something is

legal or illegal.

 

-Ever made anyone mad because of your art? I am always thinking about

that because some of the best spots to hit are on businesses or

sometimes houses. Also, covering up other work...

 

I believe that happens every week!

 

-What is a typical day for Pant?

 

Well, right now in summertime my typical day is to deal with this

bloody heat and with visitors, since my house has turned into a

free-for-all. While I try to get some work done and paint something if

the evening is not too hot!

 

-Will you ever stop painting graffiti?

 

I don't think that will happen. I really enjoy it, otherwise I would

have stopped before.

 

-Any Goals in Life?

 

Enjoy myself!
