I'm a spider tag and I'm a street artist and I started
working in the streets in 2008, more or less, and since almost two years ago I
rediscovered my stuff using these neon cables. For me street art means that
you have the whole world, more or less, as a spot, as a place. So for me, what
I do is to find the best place to do the things that I like, which is
like geometry, which is like minimalism, so I play with the space. So it's for
me, I love to travel, I love to go to the 100% abandoned place, or the
old place, the forgotten place, or the modern place, it's just to find this
perfect place where you can build your art, your composition, it's all
about the composition, it's all about how you use the space, so it's kind of
the vision that inspires my artwork. For me, the most interesting thing of
street art is that don't ask for permission, it's an educational thing,
and they train the people to be like bankers or to be financial stuff, but
they don't train people to think of art or to do art, they don't
allow their kids to paint their walls in their houses, because they don't think
art is so important, or they don't think art is important, they think that maybe
Wall Street is the real important thing, so it's so sad that the people,
the most people, not all the people of course, but there is this
general CD or the USB or the hard drive in the brains of the people that are
street art or graffiti or whatever, it's a bad thing, and you don't reduce it to
the important thing, which is like if you are painting over a painted ugly
house or abandoned wall or whatever, it's just a paint, you know, it's just
paint, even if you understand, if you don't understand, it's just paint, and so
the idea is the world has a lot of problems, a real problem, so it's
complaining about that, it's really sad, because it means that the
society is really, really, really conservative, that the society don't put
effort in art or in culture, they go in a really wrong way, like
bankers or any other jobs that are really, really out of human nature, out of
human feelings that are most important in life.
