Heading over to Tamworth

LOKI

Nue quick five 

Tell us a little about yourself and what got you started painting? 

I write loki, been painting since I was tiny, writing my name on walls since 2005. Outside of graffiti I vandalise people’s skin for money. I Started writing with a couple of friends who soon fell by the wayside but it stuck for me and I can’t seem to stop.

Best place you have painted? 

I’ve been lucky enough to paint in a good few different countries, particularly memorable ones being Morocco and Thailand, the hospitality of the local writers and the beauty of the surroundings made those walls extra special

Any big plans for this year? 

Not too many major plans except travel the country and paint with my crew mates in Bristol, London and Leeds

Tell us your funniest moments when out painting ?

Every paint usually has a funny story attached, but the least incriminating and most relevant is the nue jam last year. Due to car issues we had to go in Rakos sporty little 2 seater. Obviously ladders are a must, so we ended up having to put the roof down and cable tie the ladder to the back of the headrest’s. About thirty minutes into the 3 hour drive the heavens opened, so we drove for 2 and a half hours in the pouring rain with no roof before rocking a massive wall. Aside from this the standard entertaining locals always provide a laugh!

Anyone who you would like to collaborate with? 

I’ve been lucky enough to paint and collaborate with some incredible writers, all the btk boys inspire me so much and it’s always a pleasure to paint with them. As for people I’d like to colab with it’s probably gotta be the guys from ghetto farceur, their approach to painting blows my mind and inspires me so much
