Interview
Award Winning Bohemian Street Artist Husky Brown spent this weekend visiting Bristol for attending the Red Bull Annual International Street Art Awards. There's been so much talk about Husky's work around the world from this British street artist with measurable reviews from recent press. When we discovered Husky Brown was in town' we invited him to speak to us on Capital, before he jets of to Berlin later this evening.
Sarah Haywood: Welcome to Bristol
HUSKY: Thank you, It's good to be in Bristol once again.
Sarah Haywood: You are here to pick-up your award at the Red Bull Street Art Conference today. Congratulations. Your work is incredible, Husky and your spray paint technical ability dominate a great style of art styles and history within your work. Watching you today at the exhibition was just pure genus and I've never seen an artist spray paint using to cans at the same time. How does your eyes and mind cope with getting accuracy executed so beautifully.
H: when I first started doing this I had to paint quickly when your canvas is the streets. Time is money. The longer you wait the more chance you will get caught, why I use to cans. I have to hands, so why put limitation on weapons, oh! sorry I mean; hands!
....Husky laughs)
S: Will be visiting Bristol again?
H: Bristol people are my kind of people. I'll be back in Bristol again soon. I've met some new friends today. Just call and I'll be back!
S: When you do please make sure to come and visit us at Capital.
H: No doubt!
