<p>Yuta Onoda is a painter and illustrator from Japan and has recently graduated from Bachelor of Applied Arts Illustration at Sheridan College, Canada. His manga-style characters and dreamy expression is undoubtedly Asian and adorably charming. He has been shaping his art aesthetic through various forms of media, finding new avenues to express himself.<span id="more-1404"></span> Thank you to Mr. Yuta for answering my&nbsp;questions.</p>
<p><em>Q. Do you have a process flow when producing an artwork?</em><br />
A. I normally spend a lot of time on researching and sketching when I start working on a project. And then I move onto the&nbsp;final.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/yutaonoda_the_world_she_saw.jpg" alt="yuta" /></p>
<p><em>Q. To date, what is the toughest assignment that you have done so far?</em><br />
A. I think every assignment I have done was tough but the toughest assignment I have done so far is the piece for the 10th Annual imagineNATIVE Film Festival. It was very hard to come up with the concept and turn the ideas into the image. The schedule was very tight, so I was scared if I could deliver the final on time. I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to work on this project&nbsp;though!</p>
<p><em>Q. Is there any Asian or Japanese elements that you have (concious or unconciously) blended in your artwork that shows you are from Japan?</em><br />
A. I think a lot of my works have liner elements because I grew up with reading a lot of comics when I was a child. It&#8217;s an unconscious part but I think this part kind of shows that I am from Japan (Asia).<br />
<em></p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/yutaonoda_musashi.jpg" alt="yuta" /></p>
<p>Q. What attracted you to water color (actually Acrylics)? How do you describe your style?</em><br />
A. I love working with acrylics because it dries faster. I would like to start using oil paints when I get a chance though.<br />
I love to create dreamy images that almost tell you a&nbsp;story. </p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/yutaonoda_el_capitan.jpg" alt="yuta" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Who are your favorite artists?</em><br />
A. There are too many talented artists out there&#8230;I cannot really tell who are my favorite&nbsp;artists. </p>
<p>I appreciate looking at all the images that other artists have&nbsp;created.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/yutaonoda_confusion.jpg" alt="yuta" /></p>
<p><em>Q.What are the thing that you would never leave home without?</em><br />
A. Definitely my sketchbook. Sometimes ideas just pop up in my mind when I am outside and it&#8217;s really helpful to write ideas in my&nbsp;sketchbook. </p>
<p><em>Q. what do you think are the most important things one should have to become a successful artist?</em><br />
A. It&#8217;s really hard to say because I just graduated from school and started my career, but one thing I know for sure is to work&nbsp;hardest.</p>
<p>I think making a lot of efforts is one of the most important things to improve your art skills. Nothing will get better unless you try hard&nbsp;enough.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/yutaonoda_all_is_mine.jpg" alt="yuta" /></p>
<p><em>Q. What are your future plans and projects?</em><br />
A. I hope to keep creating both illustrations and paintings for the rest of my life! I am currently working on<br />
some illustration projects and I hope to keep coming up with pieces I am happy&nbsp;with!</p>

<p>Remi Juliebø is a designer and illustrator from Norway. With a His artworks are heavily influenced by American rock posters and skateboarding culture. Hope to see more great stuff from his in the future. <span id="more-1383"></span>Thank you to Mr. Juliebø for lending me some of his time and all the best for future&nbsp;endevour.</p>
<p><em>Q.Do you have any formal training and art and design?</em><br />
A. Yeah, I went to art-school and also had some time learning from a local art-painter (Roy A. Dahl).<br />
Also I had three years of Graphic Design at the Westerdals School of Communication in Oslo, Norway.<br />
But I&#8217;ve always had the need to create things with my hands. I made some goofy comics when I was in high&nbsp;school.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/el-cuero-skull_400.jpg"/></p>
<p><em>Q. How do you describe your style?</em><br />
A. I would like to say that my style is timeless, but then I&#8217;m only kidding myself.<br />
I get a lot of inspiration from American rock posters, and the aesthetics that comes with the music scene and the skateboard scene. Also I find it very inspiring to look at retro type and 50&#8217;s illustrations. So, I guess you could call my style Post Underground? Also I try to be a Jack of All Trades, but leaving a piece of myself in everything I do. I tend to get very lost in my projects, using a lot of time in details. Also trying to keep my integrity on a pleasing&nbsp;level.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/første-gang-jeg-døde_400.jpg"/></p>
<p><em>Q. So far, have you been in a position that requires you to abandon your personal style  in order to meet a client request?</em><br />
A. Luckily, no, not yet. It has been a great couple of years. Of course you use your best judgement to please the client, but leave enough of yourself in it to keep the passion for the project&nbsp;up. </p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/insidecounts_400.jpg"/></p>
<p><em>Q. What or who are your inspirations?</em><br />
A. As I mentioned before, a lot of 50&#8217;s illustrations. Look at the backgrounds of Disneys 101 Dalmatians for example. Pixar art, retro type. Music, movies&#8230; Video games are a great inspiration. The music scene with album covers, posters and merch is a constant inspiration and the retro skateboard scene. Also, my better half always pushes me to do better, and comes with feedback i couldn&#8217;t live without. She is my greatest&nbsp;inspiration. </p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/knutreiersrudband4_400.jpg"/></p>
<p><em>Q. Do you have any tools or gadgets that you can&#8217;t live without?</em><br />
A. Who dosen&#8217;t? I need my sketchbook, and my mac. And of course, a scanner, among other&nbsp;things. </p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/ONEwildNIGHTONLY1_400.jpg"/></p>
<p><em>Q. When producing an art piece, do you have a specific step-by step creative procedure or you just do it and improvise whenever necessary?</em><br />
A. Usually, it starts off with a rough idea, and develops from there. But where and how the idea comes, and how it&#8217;s being shaped from air to something solid is different every time. I have sketched on canvases with coffee, awaken in the middle of the night and drawn something down that I can&#8217;t understand the next day and therefore turn in to something else and sometimes I can start directly on the final step, skipping sketching because the idea is clear enough from the&nbsp;start. </p>

<img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/sweet_400.jpg" alt="Remi Juliebo"/></p>
<p><em>Q. Have you done any exhibition before? Who you like to collaborate with?</em><br />
A. I have had a couple of art exhibits, some with paintings, and some with printed images on canvas. I had one at last years By:Larm, a music festival with some large prints and shirts. I have one ongoing with paintings, and are currently preparing for an exhibit at a Sci-fi festival here in Oslo.<br />
The list of people I&#8217;d like to collaborate with is to big to mention, but I have a lot of friends I wouldn&#8217;t mind working&nbsp;with.</p>

In our ongoing series of interviews with inspirational people from around the world, today I would like to introduce Mr.<a href="http://www.rodolfobiglie.com">Rodolfo Biglie</a>, an illustrator, graphic and web designer from Argentina but currently living in Prague, The Czech Republic. Highly talented and imaginative, his works are oozing with freshness and professionalism. <span id="more-1353"></span>Thank you to Mr. Biglie for answering my&nbsp;questions.</p>
<p><em>Q. Where do you get your inspiration from?</em><br />
A. I get it from thinking about how “normal” things can be different… From books,regardless if they’re novels or about science… From movies, Hollywood bullshit or documentaries… Everything is an&nbsp;influence.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/tik-670px.png" alt="rodolfo" /></p>
<p><em>Q. To date, what is the toughest assignment that you have done so far?</em><br />
A. Managing both the Creative and <span class="caps">IT</span> departments of an international interactive advertising agency, for&nbsp;sure.</p>
<p>I was the head of production for Mather Advertures in Prague. Having to communicate in a second language with more than twenty other people who were also communicating in a second language was a challenge. I had to take and give<br />
direction based on context and body language. It was a big learning experience, both professionally and&nbsp;personally.</p>
<p><em>Q. Who are your favorite artists?</em><br />
A. Duchamp, Leonardo, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wassily_Kandinsky">Kandinsky</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson_Pollock">Pollock</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Greco">El Greco</a>, Rembrandt, artist from the&nbsp;Renaissance…</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/powerful-planet-2009-small1.png" alt="rodolfo" /></p>
<p><em>Q. So far, what is the most interesting project that you have been involved in?</em><br />
We conceptualized and executed a multi?language web site and campaign for <a href="http://www.avrillavigne.com">Avril Lavigne</a>, the singer, for her fragrance, Black Star. It spoke to her community of fans, letting them interact with her and making them feel part of her world, regardless of what country they came&nbsp;from.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/pipiolo.png" alt="rodolfo" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Have you done any collaboration with other artist or company? Who do you want to work with in the future?</em><br />
A. Yes, I work with a lot of different agencies in the Czech Republic and in&nbsp;Spain.</p>
<p><em>Q. What are the things that you would never leave home without?</em><br />
A. I could never leave home without kissing my son and my wife at breakfast. If I leave home without my iPhone, I have to go back and get it, but I’m not angry. It gives me another chance to kiss my son and my wife goodbye for the&nbsp;day.</p>
<p><em>Q. Do you do an extensive planning before starting on a certain project or you like to just do it, improvise and add on new ideas while doing it?</em><br />
A. When I get a brief, I do a lot of research on the needs and the goals of the project. Once I know what is needed, and what the framework is, then I can play around with the details and come up with something creative and&nbsp;effective.</p>
<p><img src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/Cargo-670px-948px-that-is-life1.png" alt="rodolfo" /></p>
<p><em>Q. What do you think are the most important things one should have to become a successful designer?</em><br />
A. You design for your clients ?? and the clients of your clients – it’s not only about you and your&nbsp;portfolio</p>
<p>Good design is an effective solution to a problem, issue or need (see&nbsp;above)</p>
<p>Your ego is fuel… but, without an engine, fuel is nothing but a smelly liquid… it can become your worst enemy… especially if someone lights a&nbsp;match…</p>
<p><em>Q. What are your future plans and projects?</em><br />
A. My family and I are moving to Barcelona in the beginning of 2010. It will be a new cycle for me, both professionally and personally, and I am looking forward to it as it opens up the doors to new&nbsp;challenges.</p>

<p>Seni grafiti dan stensil selalunya membawa mesej sosial yang tajam dan sinis. Ia disampaikan dengan imej atau tulisan yang mudah difahami. Bagi penggiat seni stensil tempatan, <a href="http://f-code.blogspot.com">Rat</a>, seni stensil mampu membuat mereka yang melihatnya &#8220;<em>marah, dicarut oleh seni itu di depan muka tapi wujud “ilusi” seolah tiada apa yang mereka boleh lakukan utuk “mencarut” semula. Atau orang akan rasa suka melihatnya, mungkin secara mudahnya mereka suka sebab ia mungkin cantik atau mereka bersetuju dengan idea dalam seni itu.</em>&#8221; <span id="more-366"></span>Untuk memahami dengan lebih lanjut salah satu cabang seni jalanan ini, kita bersama f-code, antara penggiat seni stensil dan grafiti yang aktif dan dikenali di Malaysia. (<em>This interview was originally published on 11th February&nbsp;2008</em>) </p>
<p><em>Q. Adakah F-Code sebuah kolektif atau individu yang bergerak secara solo?</em><br />
A. Fcode asalnya bermula sebagai<em> designing</em> dan<em> printing</em> label pada tahun 90an. Masa itu memang <em>printing</em> masih menggunakan teknik stensil di campur dengan pengaruh punk buat aku minat gila-gila dengan stensil. Aku buat sorang sahaja. Pada masa yang sama aku banyak terlibat dengan workshop yang dianjurkan secara pro atau hanya di kalangan kawan-kawan. Tetapi pada permulaan aku hanya buat <em>workshop</em> silkscreen printing. Pertama kali aku buat workshop stensil pada tahun 2002/3 di Batu Pahat bersama kawan-kawan di sana. Sejak itu lebih banyak ‘jemputan’ untuk workshop stensil yang aku dapat, semuanya tidak berbayar. <em>Skill sharing</em> dengan kawan-kawan. Akhirnya adik aku sendiri minta aku buat <em>workshop</em> stensil di rumah kami sendiri. Aku setuju, after that, 2 daripada adik perempuan aku yang ikut sharing ini datang dengan idea untuk tubuhkan satu kumpulan bersama 3 lagi kawan mereka. Lepas berfikir lebih kurang aku pun setuju. Bosan juga gerak sorang-sorang ni. Jadi sejak 2004 aku bergerak bersama tiga perempuan dan dua lagi lelaki. Mereka yang memilih untuk terus menggunakan nama f-code yg ditambah ‘s’ dihujung. Pada tahun 2004, seorang daripada kawan aku meninggal dan pada penghujung 2006, sedikit masalah timbul di kalangan kami, kami berpecah dan tinggal pada mulanya aku dan 2 lagi adik perempuan aku. Kemudian oleh kerana komitmen mereka terhadap perkara lain, mereka pun keluar. Tinggal lah aku seorang sejak tahun 2006 hingga&nbsp;sekarang.</p>
<p>Tetapi dasar idea f-code tu tidak mewakili sesiapa atau diri aku. Aku hanya seorang yang membawa idea itu, yang mana ia boleh di bawa oleh sesiapa sahaja. F-code wujud dari apa yang aku lihat tentang ‘seni di jalanan’. F tu datang dari perkataan “<em>fuck</em>” perkataan mencarut paling terkenal di seluruh dunia. Dan setiap seni jalanan itu adalah satu carutan dalam bentuk kod [code] buat mereka yang melihat. Ia satu sifat yang dibawa oleh seni jalanan ini. Jadi f-code tu menerangkan sifat apa sahaja bentuk seni jalanan dan bukan mewakili sesiapa. Kerana seni bentuk ini hanya akan hasilkan dua perasaan terhadap orang yang melihat, sama ada orang benci melihatnya. Kerana mereka rasa marah, dicarut oleh seni itu di depan muka tapi wujud “ilusi” seolah tiada apa yang mereka boleh lakukan utuk “mencarut” semula. Atau orang akan rasa suka melihatnya, mungkin secara mudahnya mereka suka sebab ia mungkin cantik atau mereka bersetuju dengan idea dalam seni itu. Tetapi di luar sedar, ia lebih dari itu. Mereka yang suka dengan seni jalanan ini tetap di carut seperti yang lainnya. Jadi sebenarnya, seperti di atas tadi, f-code itu sifat mencarut/marah yang di bawa oleh seni-seni jalanan. Mereka yang meletakkan seni-seni ini di sana hanya pembuat kod. Dan dalam hal ini, ia boleh jadi siapa sahaja. Malah kau sendiri pun boleh jadi pembuat kod ni. Aku tetap Rat. Bukan&nbsp;f-code.</p>
<p><img width="400" src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/img_4475.JPG" alt="f code" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Apakah fungsi blog f-code ini sama dengan <a href="http://woostercollective.com">Wooster Collective</a>, iaitu untuk menunjukkan atau showcase hasil kerja artis-artis lain?</em><br />
A. Fungsi asalnya untuk letakkan artwork aku setelah aku dikhianati oleh kawan aku yang asalnya dari kumpulan ini. Setelah ‘dia’ keluar dari kumpulan. Tanpa pengetahuan aku, dia gunakan email group untuk terus menghantar artwork dan komen ke <a href="http://ricecooker.kerbau.com">Ricecooker</a> menggunakan nama aku [sebelum ini tiada siapa tahu siapa aku sbb aku bergerak anonymously] dengan niat mendedahkan identiti aku kerana pembaca Ricecooker mmg ramai. Bukan setakat itu sahaja, ‘dia’ juga gunakan email f-codes untuk hantar ‘hatemail’ kepada group atau individu yang buat <em>street art</em>, dan yang kena, of course, aku. Lepas aku sedar semua tu, aku tukar <em>password</em> email dan buat blog sendiri sebab aku segan dah nak hantar kepada <a href="http://ricecooker.kerbau.com">Ricecooker</a> pasal aku tidak boleh buktikan siapa sebenarnya yang hantar email-email itu selama ini. Dan di situla pemulaan blog itu. Asalnya untuk letak <em>work</em> aku sahaja, tetapi lepas itu aku rasa hendak <em>menggalakkan</em> lebih ramai kawan-kawan terutama budak-budak scene untuk sama-sama buat stensil dan letakkan diblog tu. <a href="http://woostercollective.com">Wooster collective</a> di bangun oleh dua orang yang aku tak pasti jika mereka turut sama aktif mengasilkan seni di jalan, tapi bagi pihak aku, aku mahu menggumpul hasil seni di jalan dan pada masa yang sama turut sama&nbsp;menghasilkan.</p>
<p><img width="400" src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/img_4476.JPG" alt="img_4476.JPG" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Sejak bila anda berminat dengan seni grafiti? Di manakah grafiti yang pertama saudara hasilkan dan bila?</em><br />
A. Sejak aku kenal musik punk. Masa tu mana-mana band pun guna imej stensil. Selepas itu aku aku minat dengan <em>printing</em> yang mana pada masa tu emulsion atau apa-apa <em>chemical</em> tak ada lagi, jadi aku buat pinting guna teknik stensil. Masa ini aku remaja lagi, sangat nakal maka di hantar bersekolah di kampung, satu pekan kecil di Pahang. Namun di pekan kecil ini budaya punk sedang mengakar. Rata-rata kawan lama yang aku kenal aktif ngan stensil punya alasan yang sama, mereka diperkenalkan dengan stensil oleh punk. Dan mungkin atas sebab itu juga aku nak bawa ia kembali ke masa sekarang. “<em>making punk a stencil&nbsp;again</em>”.</p>
<p>Jadi stensil aku yang pertama sekali di Pahang dalam tahun 90an, pernah aku balik ke sana dan cuba cari balik stensil aku tu, tak banyak yang masih ada. Tapi semua stensil awal dari aku memang sudah tidak ada lagi sekarang&nbsp;ini.</p>
<p><img width="400" src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/berkerja.jpg" alt="f code" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Di Amerika, grafiti merupakan sub budaya yang juga dikaitkan dengan hip-hop dan juga b boys. Bagaimana dengan f-code?</em><br />
A. Memetik kata sahabat baik aku, “Graffiti is not hip-hop. If you call it that, then stop”. Graffiti lahir lebih awal daripada hip-hop, malah di awal kewujudannya ia lebih banyak berkenaan musik punk dan rock, bukan hip-hop. Tapi kemudiannya di ambil sebagai satu daripada budaya dalam hip-hop. Aku lebih terpengaruh dengan punk – musik, budaya dan&nbsp;ideanya.</p>
<p><img width="400" src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/stencil-dsc00168.JPG" alt="stencil-dsc00168.JPG" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Apakah mesej yang saudara ingin sampaikan dengan stensil grafiti yang saudara hasilkan?</em><br />
A. Penggunaan <em>spray</em> itu sendiri adalah mesej kepada masyarakat yang membiarkan sekumpulan manusia berkuasa menguruskan dunia ini. Kalau ada sesiapa menyembur secara rambang di jalanan sekali pun, ia sudah menyampaikan ‘mesej’ yang cukup menyakitkan hati masyarakat yang melihatnya, rasa macam kena maki. Tapi aku suka buat stensil dan macam dah jadi satu kebiasaan yang stensil di guna sebagai medium propaganda, bukan seni semata-mata. Jadi, hasil kerja aku banyak menyentuh tentang isu semasa, terutama isu yang timbul di dalam negara kita sendiri, Cuma kadang-kadang sahaja aku sentuh isu antarabangsa seperti perang dan&nbsp;sebagainya.</p>
<p><em>Q. Dalam setiap &#8216;bombing mission&#8217; untuk menghasikan grafiti, bilakah masa yang paling sesuai? Apakah antara &#8216;rule of tumb&#8217; apabila memilih lokasi?</em><br />
A. Masa yang paling sesuai ialah masa yang tiada siapa jangka, kadangkala di setengah tempat, buat siang hari lebih selamat dari buat pagi buta. Contoh; oleh kerana kau dari johor, tentu kau biasa dengan kawasan Segget. Aku letak stensil tandas berdiri di situ semasa orang ramai kebanyakannya terpaku depan <span class="caps">TV</span> tengok piala dunia di Jerman [Jun-Julai 2006]. Aku buat masa tu seawal pukul 8.00 malam. Jadi kesimpulan kat situ, peristiwa atau apa-apa acara semasa boleh di lihat sebagai salah satu faktor dalam memilih waktu untuk ‘shooting’ [bahasa yang aku gunakan instead of bombing]. Tetapi dalam banyak keadaan, dah tentulah buat pagi-pagi buta paling selamat. Lokasi pula terpulang. Kalau nakkan ‘<em>audience</em>’ buat lah di tempat tumpuan orang ramai seperti stesyen <span class="caps">LRT</span>, kawasan<em> shopping mall</em> dan&nbsp;sebagainya.</p>
<p><img width="400" src="http://sirehdancengkeh.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/stencil-dsc00180.JPG" alt="fcode" /></p>
<p>Q. Siapakah antara artis yang menjadi sandaran inspirasi f-code?<br />
Cirda Haryati, Manaf, <a href="http://www.banksy.co.uk">Banksy</a>, <a href="http://obeygiant.com">Sheppard Fairey[obeygiant]</a>, <a href="http://jefaerosol.free.fr">Jef Aerosol</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swoon_(artist)">Swoon</a>,<a href="http://www.kolahstudio.com/a1one/"> A1one</a>, M-City, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_MacPhee">Josh MacPhee</a>, <a href="http://www.chrisstain.com/">Chris&nbsp;Stain</a>.</p>
<p><img src="http://kwout.com/cutout/6/wk/c3/6t9.jpg" alt="f code" /></p>
<p><em>Q. Pernahkan f-code menyertai mana-mana pameran atau pertandingan?</em><br />
Pernah beberapa kali di dalam dan luar negara. Di Jepun pada tahun 2006 <a href="http://a.sanpal.co.jp/irregular/seppuku2.html">http://a.sanpal.co.jp/irregular/seppuku2.html</a> di Korea dan Australia di mana video aku di screenkan. Dan yang terbaru di Barcelona Spain - <a href="http://www.miscelanea.info/ficha_actividad.php?id=199">http://www.miscelanea.info/ficha_actividad.php?id=199</a> video sickmyduck di screenkan lagi. Di Malaysia, banyak juga <em>confine exhibition</em> yang aku ikut. Notthatbalai 2005 hingga <a href="http://www.notthatbalai.blogspot.com/">2007</a>. <a href="http://myspace.com/rantai">Rantai art fest</a>, sehinggalah ke dalam Balai Seni Lukis Negara. Tapi paling <em>best</em> tentang seni jalanan ialah ia patut berada di jalan, nama pun dah seni jalanan. Bayangkan work aku setiap hari beribu-ribu orang lihat, beribu-ribu makian, carutan. Beribu-ribu org yang benci dan suka dan bermacam perasaan&nbsp;timbul.</p>
<p>Pertandingan bukan atas nama f-code biasa la, tapi kalau pertandingan dengan menggunakan stensil sebagai medium memang tidak&nbsp;pernah.</p>
<p><em>Q. Pada pendapat saudara, adakah seni grafiti ini mempunyai pengikut di Malaysia? Bagaimana pula pandangan masyarakat dan kerajaan tentang seni ini?</em><br />
A. Berdasar dari pemerhatian aku, ia sedang berkembang, cuma agak <em>perlahan</em> sedikit. Tapi kalau sekadar pengikut perkembangan, memang ramai, yang melakukannya masih belum cukup&nbsp;ramai.</p>
<p>Kalau hendak ambik kira apa masyarakat atau pihak berkuasa pikir tentang seni jalanan ini memang kita takkan buat apa-apa sampai bila-bila. Hendak tunggu sampai ia jadi <em>legal</em>(sah), mimpi&nbsp;la.</p>
<p><em>Q. Apakah kit atau barang-barang yang perlu ada untuk menghasilkan grafiti? Adakah ia mudah didapati di Malaysia?</em><br />
A. Aku akan sentuh tentang stensil sahaja. <em>Board</em> untuk stensil, paper cutter, spray can. Sangat mudah di&nbsp;dapati.</p>
<p><em>Q. Berapa lama persediaan yang diambil sebelum menghasilkan sesebuah grafiti?</em><br />
A. Sekali lagi aku hanya akan menyentuh tentang stensil graffiti.<br />
Aku mungkin akan melakukan sedikit kajian tentang isu yang ingin aku sentuh. Mungkin beberapa hari. Bila sudah siap dengan kajian, lukis, potong dan sembur di jalanan boleh di lakukan dalam satu&nbsp;hari.</p>
<p><em>Q. Karya anda pernah digunakan untuk muka hadapan buku &#8216;Goblog&#8217;. Selain itu, pernahkan saudara bekerja sama dengan mana-mana pihak untuk projek amal atau komersial?</em><br />
A. Aku mmg tak suka ber’amal’, aku ada buat kerja sukarela dengan beberapa orang perseorangan, kolektif dan <span class="caps">NGO</span>. Untuk tujuan komersil, tidak&nbsp;ada.</p>

<p><em>Q. Kata-kata akhir?</em><br />
A. Imaginasi dan seni boleh di gunakan sebagai sebahagian dari modul perubahan dalam diri, masyarakat dan realiti hidup kita sehari-hari, bukan semata-mata untuk kepuasan diri. Seni ini boleh jadi sesuatu yang paling mengagumkan apabila ia mampu menyemai kesedaran tentang kuasa yang setiap orang ada untuk bertindak untuk diri mereka sendiri, hasilkan seni mereka sendiri, mereka percaya pada idea sendiri, menguasai diri mereka masing-masing dan mengubah diri mereka sendiri. Kerana jika kita terus menerima apa yang diberi/disuapkan, kita takkan membesar, kita tidak memiliki diri sendiri. Kadangkala kita perlu “mencarut dan memaki-hamun” dan melakukan sesuatu yang kita rasa&nbsp;betul.</p>
