| Cultural Inspiration: |
Real life is my main source of inspiration. I currently live in a small village in Bali, and I'm surrounded by a strong cultural feeling. Hindu religious ceremonies are filled with dances, offerings crafted with rice and displayed on banana leaves, the architectures of the temples are beautiful, with a lot of wood carving and sculptures.

| Artistic Inspiration: |
I admire every artist who stay true and dedicated to himself. For example I like Charles Burns. His work is clean and beautiful, and he tells inspiring stories about weird characters. To be honest I don't spend much time looking at other people's work. I'm too busy working on my own stuff. Currently I'm working on a future exhibition mixing illustration and fonts, and I find a lot of inspiration in argentinian fileteado, american sign paintings, and obviously my graffiti roots. I love letters, I love illustration. |
