The backstory of the

Octulos Interviews

Sinds 2022 voer ik interviews met kunstenaars die actief zijn op straat, thuis, in hun studio’s, of overal invloed uitoefenen. De reden dat ik hiermee ben begonnen, is simpelweg dat ik geïnteresseerd ben in het verhaal achter hun kunstwerken.

Heb jij een verhaal te vertellen en ben jij een kunstenaar?
Let's get connected.

LET'S HAVE A CHAT
ABOUT: Dino Style
I am always curious about the background of different artists what they do for a living but I respect their privacy. Like Dino Style, I asked him to participate in the interviews and he told me that he is a science teacher and how he combines art in his classes. It was really nice to have an artist like Dino Style in the teachers section who actually has a deeper understanding of the sticker and graffiti community. This is his story:

ABOUT: Dreamer Lotus
There was a long time ago when I tried to draw portraits. I stopped trying when the eyes never matched and the ratio of the head's elements ( nose, mouth, eyes, ears) was more alienlike then humanform. Because I never could, I respect those who can and thats when I came across Dreamer Lotus her badass chola character. Her cartoonish style portrait character with the shiny, wavy hair is something remarkable. And I got her for a interview. This is her story.

ABOUT: Future Prospect
When I first started my journey in this creative community, I stumbled upon meany creative artist. One of 'em was Future Prospect, he was a artist I really looked up to, due to his creative and detailed way of work. When some of my friend in my town told me my work looked dope, I told em:"bro, you should look at this guy." That was a true story and I'm glad, I got em for an interview.

About: Benjii
My impression of Benji is a kind guy and a great artist. And yeah, he is! As both members of NFG crew, I watched his dope work, using posca's, a brush and some water to make them colors fade. He takes a couple days to make a piece but when that piece hits, you'll be amazed! Well, this is Benji's backstory, the founder of the 228 Magazine!
