Brooklyn based 5th Column has teamed up with Taiwanese artist Colasa for a tee entitled Christ Illusion. The tee will be available at ARISTOCRATS and 5th Column webstore on May 1st.
What inspires you?
They come from spontaneous ideas, and everything around my life.
What inspired the art for this collaboration?
I still continued the creation of past features, it would be more focus on the atmosphere as completed . The main theme of Jesus head, the most important is to convey the impression that the image is more important. I hope to give relatively deep. More serene visual senses in fact, does not represent any religion or belief.
When you say art is a reflection of your personal image… How do you view yourself?
I always free in my mind to do anything, I wish I can do my creation by casual attitude ,flow and just be myself.
How has living in Taiwan affected your art?
It will be hard to develop into a profession in Taiwan, and not enough people are involved in doing graffiti. So l mainly know other artists or news from Internet and books and I try to improve myself by any innovation idea.
What is your main goal in life?
I don’t have the idea particularly about my main goal, I may have some dreams about the future, but for the real goal, I should only hope to hold the moment, I want to enjoy free life, I have a lot of plans that I would like to be able to achieve, but right now I still like best about the artistic creation.
對我目前生命中的主要目標,其實沒有什麼特別的想
法,我也 許有一些關於未來的夢想,但是對於所謂 真正
的目標,我 應該只是希望能把握當下,我希望能自由 的
享受生命,我 有很多還沒完成的事情,我希望都能實現,
但是目前我仍然最喜歡有關於藝術的創作
How do you feel about Jesus Christ?
I have read many story about Jesus Christ before, I know many people like the Jesus Christ as the subject of art, Jesus was like a symbol of the spirit for me. The Strength of spirit is very strong, will change people’s mind and even spiritual, and sometimes do not have to sound loud, but people really understand what you want to convey the sound or feel the force is strong.
我讀過很多關於耶穌基督的故事,我也知道很多人喜歡
將耶穌基督當作藝術創作的題材,對我來說,耶穌就好
像一種精神的象徵,這種精神的力量是很強大的,他會
改變人的想法甚至心靈,有時候不一定要聲音大聲,但
人們真正懂你所要傳達的聲音或是感受到的力量是強
大的
What comes to mind when you think of 5th Column?
If only literally of 5th Column, I was no concept. I know 5th
Column from the site. Then I know it seems to convey the concept of
evil or the dark side , I was impressed for the website pictures.
如果只是從字面上來看,我是沒有什麼概念的.我是從
網站所認識.後來我知道他似乎也是傳達比較黑暗面或
是邪惡的概念,網站的圖片也讓我印象深刻
