This weekend I painted at Leake Street as part of two events in the same place. Communication issues and frustration about Femme Fierce’s organisation and focus meant that a second event was arranged for the same day. This allowed artists to take back some control over their own environment. The mistrust around Femme Fierce is […]
Today I had a meeting with Cardiff Council. Specifically, the people who are in charge of what the city of Cardiff looks like. It was sincerely refreshing to put across my views on how the corporate world that we are immersed in definitely does not sit well with what hip-hop culture is about. We discussed […]
I hate getting up early, but… this was worth it. Got the 6am (blurgh) megabus down to London (only six quid!) For a super sunny paint up with Pyklops, Sofly Guisi Tomasello and Siany. Met some other lovely artists out for the sesson too – mega thanks to JXC who gave me a gift! After […]
Over two years ago, more than 200 schoolgirls were abducted from their school in Chibok, Nigeria. They are still missing. I put up the 179 names I could find online, in their memory. More information about the kidnapping here. I felt emotionally drained after painting this. I feel so helpless.

Myself, Pyklops, Sofly, Nathaniel Draws, Sega, Aver, Object, Skin, Jeesee, Defs and Tao painted underwater pieces to a soundtrack from The Hold Up, with a regular rabble of MC’s getting busy on the mic. I met some lovely little children having a […]

As the Femme Fierce event planned for International Women’s Day 2016 was postponed, I decided that Cardiff was ready for a paint jam to mark the day. I invited artists from around the UK to come and paint the 340ft wall along the Millenium Boardwalk, and they came… 29 artists from Cardiff, Bristol, London, Brighton […]
I began work last week on putting a tree at each of the ten wards in the new Adult Mental Health Unit at Llandough Hospital. The building itself is called simply Hafan Y Coed (Haven of trees), and is based around this theme, with pieces of art throughout, inspired by nature. Even the cladding on […]
