Nobody ever listened to me until they didn't know who I was

If Michaelangelo or Leonardo Da Vinci were alive today they’d be making Avatar, not painting a chapel.

The thing I hate the most about advertising is that it attracts all the bright, creative and ambitious young people, leaving us mainly with the slow and self-obsessed to become our artists.. Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little.

We don’t need any more heroes; we just need someone to take out the recycling.

I know street art can feel increasingly like the marketing wing of an art career, so I wanted to make some art without the price tag attached. There's no gallery show or book or film. It's pointless. Which hopefully means something.

I like to think I have the guts to stand up anonymously in a western democracy and call for things no-one else believes in - like peace and justice and freedom.

It doesn't take much to be a successful artist-all you need to do is dedicate your entire life to it.
