common human behaviours when
confined in similar
circumstances. SanRemo is a
town with a population of a
little under 60.000 people
where everyone knows eachother
and often rumors and gossips
are the peak of one's normal
day. After learning how to be
smart enough to let it get to
me my need for expressivity
exploded. Large, legal and
illegal murals were the only
way of making "my world" a
reality. It helped me wait for
the bus, ride in the train
that took me to school and it
also made it a lot easier for
me to earn the respect from
the other teenagers and
crowds. So i just painted, i
often got caught in the
process. Judged as a vandal
for it i ...

It helped me wait for the bus, ride in the train that tooke me to school and it made it a lotof easier for me to earn the respect trough the other teenagers and crowds. So i just painted, often got caught in the process, judged as a vandal for it and handed back to my pour father who couldn't punish me too hard knowing my weakness towards expression. With the help of the art school all really started to make sense... Math was awful, history and literature were easy to pay attention to but the creative classes just made me feel better all the time. I loved creativity, i knew my purpose in life was not yet defined but i knew that whatever it was going tobe it had to be trough a creative process.
I grew up in "today's" society where in my case graffiti have been the realest-emotionally speaking-form of art i have ever really been exposed to. That's how my creativity started expanding... |
