From suburb to suburb, a cold trip with Isadora, Guelfa, Zen, Monè (R.I.P.), Chief, Craze, Dust. Check out the original A.One (R.I.P.) piece in the background. And Mode2 off course! Few days, so many stories about. There’s nothing like travelling if you want to learn something for true.
All photos have been stolen by Zen’s Facebook, thanx for the nice memories!
I was called by Sara Allevi to paint this canvas at the streetwear fair in Firenze in 2006 in the ex Stazione Leopolda, where the event was held. After a fantastic night out around a beautiful Firenze with Sara, KayOne, Blast and Mambo, the next morning I made my quick pictorial contribution. The location was very nice but unfortunately quite difficult: painting with spray cans created a haze of aerosol definitely not appreciated by all the customers. I then limited to paint something fast before heading back to Milano… anyway, it’s been fun!
Thanx Sara for the kind invite!
Adelante Dolmen is an information technology company based on solidarity, they combine IT and job placement solutions in the world of employment of persons with disabilities… it sounds good, right?
I was left free to paint what I wanted for the entrance of their new offices, a very big open-space with no other fornitures than tables and computers… this is the result.

I have been to London many times, but the first time I have wanted to paint there was in 1998. My contacts with the English scene were solely related to the fact I was exchanging magazines between Tribe Mag and Graphotism. So first thing, having no other hooks, I went to Graphotism’s headquarter to see if they could put me in touch with some trusted name.
