EP 144-GEORGIA HILL

Vantagepoint Radio"s tracks ·

2022/10/01

Georgia Hill's background in graphic design is immediately obvious by her ability to communicate felling and tone so powerfully with a rather minimal amount of artistic elements. Mostly black and white and aggressively flat dimensionally, Hill's work would seem stark if it weren't for her captivating use of pulsating repetition, clever optical illusions, ominous and suggestive incorporation of text and the sheer size and scale at which her work is often presented. Based in Sydney Australia, Hill

EP143 - NAFIR

2022/08/31

Iranian artist Nafir creates work that combines traditional hand crafts from around the world with modern street art painting techniques to create works that are both beautiful and subversive at the same time. Tying cultural traditions of the past to modern techniques and aesthetics allows Nafir to layer multiple meanings and interpretations into his work, simultaneously paying respect to and commenting on ideas and traditions from past generations. Living in Tehran, Iran presents challenges that

EP 142 - GOLDIE

2022/08/01

Goldie needs no introduction… that is to say, it is nearly impossible to give a proper introduction to such a prolific and successful cultural shapeshifter as Goldie. From his early days in the 80s as a b-boy and graffiti writer in England and New York (where he first joined forces with the legendary Tats Crew), to the mid 90s when he founded one of the most influential record labels in Britain (Metalheadz) and become an international musical icon and eventually becoming a household name globally

2022/07/01

Mr. June has been painting on walls since 1985 and in the nearly 40 years since then much has changed but his core love of graffiti and painting has not. After graduating with a Graphic Design degree from the Royal School of Arts in his native Holland Mr. June started his own design firm in Amsterdam which he ran with great success until his desire to work for clients gave way to his need for artistic freedom and independence. By combining his graffiti background with his design knowledge he

EP 140-DREZ

Vantagepoint Radio"s tracks ·

2022/06/01

DREZ is making big waves with his bold colorful murals across his native Australia and beyond. Monumental bands of gradient color, which the artist calls “Chromatic Pulse”, designed to mirror the existing architecture of a space, vibrate with glowing energy and engulf any viewer that enters their orbit. As a departure from his roots in the music scene and graffiti, DREZ’s murals and studio work lean hard into the world or abstract and even minimalism. Rather than subject matter, it’s the emphasis on

2022/04/30

Widely considered one of the seminal figures in the Australian graffiti scene, Phibs has enjoyed a crossover career spanning decades and cross-pollinating artistic borders from graffiti, to corporate work, to curation, muralism and gallery work. As a long time key member of the globally recognized Everfresh studio in Melbourne Phibs has been a household name to street art fans for a very long time. Whether painting figurative work, letter styles, animals, plants, or just abstract, his distinctive

2022/04/01

Artists Ryan 'Yanoe’ Sarfati and Eric ‘Zoueh’ Skotnes joined forces a few years ago and have quietly established themselves as one of the most respected mural painting duos on the scene. Together they’ve clocked a handful of the largest and most impressive murals form the past couple years including the The Majestic in Tulsa Oklahoma which has been deemed the 'largest augmented reality mural in the world’. Yanoe and Zoueh first encountered each other in the LA graffiti scene as teenagers in rival

EP 137 - TATI

Vantagepoint Radio"s tracks ·

2022/03/02

The world of Tatiana Suarez is inhabited by exotic figures that float somewhere in the realm between human, animal, and plant life. Their oversized eyes concealing truths while emitting emotion. Wether with watercolor, oil, or spray paint, Tati creates milky dreamlike environments that allow her ladies to be simultaneously dark and soft, creepy and lovely, powerfully feminine and unapologetically erotic. Tati’s unique voice and aesthetic have thrust her into the global mural art scene with walls in

EP 136-ATOMIK

2022/02/01

Few artists if any are more synonymous with the city in which they live than Miami’s Atomik. His iconic Orange character is visible in every corner of the city, from walls to street signs to tee-shirts and beyond . It could be argued that there is not a single spot in Wynwood where you can stand and not have an Atomik orange within your line of vision. Surprisingly however, the thing that sets Atomik apart from other graffiti writers is not how prolific he is, but rather how much the city has

EP 135-ALEX YANES

2021/12/31

Miami native Alex Yanes has developed a unique blend of painting and sculpture that combines urban art aesthetics with pop imagery and a sunshiny tropical vibe. His imagery, featuring a mix of abstract geometry with tropical plants and animals woven between text and uplifting messages, is reminiscent of a life spent in the sunshine state. For nearly a decade his colorful sculptures, wall hanging relief paintings, and installations have been gracing galleries and art fares around the globe. While in

2021/11/30

Sydney based artist The Ox King has positioned himself as a leading mural painter in Australia through his stylized pop imagery influenced heavily by his obsession with manga as a kid. His strong emphasis on color and design make his work immediately recognizable and easily accessible to the public.

EP132 - ALLISON SOMMERS

2021/11/01

The paintings and drawings of Berlin based American artist Allison Sommers act as a portal to a universe very similar to our own but in which some evil genius has altered a few lines of the code. Grotesque in subject matter but handled with exquisite artistic attention, the viewer is left struggling to decide whether they should turn away in disgust or give into the urge to explore the endless details of oozing contorted flesh and sticky tissue. Sommers’ work expands tonally and dimensionally with

EP131 - LADY AIKO

2021/10/01

Lady Aiko has been a hugely influential force in the "urban art” scene for significantly longer than there has even been an “urban art” scene. Since moving from Tokyo to New York in the early 90s Aiko has been a constant presence and has collaborated with or even played a pivotal roll in the early careers of industry giants such as Takashi Murakami, Faile, Banksy, and Martha Cooper just to name a few. Her solo work focuses primarily on hand cut stencils for which she has developed an instantly

EP 130 - MR PARADOX PARADISE

2021/09/01

It is not at all an over exaggeration to say that Paradox (Mr. ParadoxParadise) is one of the most prolific, most unique, and most visible graffiti writer in Berlin, a city full of prolific and unique graffiti writers. Because of that however, they are extremely secretive and anonymous which is why this episode of VantagePoint is so special. Paradox exploded into public consciousness through the development and implementation of a special technique of painting graffiti that involves repelling down

2021/08/01

For some people, turning your hobby into your career can suck all of the fun and passion out of it. For others, it allows them to do what they love every day and adds an extra level of excitement and motivation. RAWS stands confidently in the second group. As a teenager he discovered his love for graffiti. At university he studied graphic design. But it wasn’t until after finishing his studies that he realized his true calling fell somewhere between the two. By blending his design and graffiti

2021/07/01

Kkade discovered his love of letters while writing graffiti in his youth. His love became an obsession when studying graphic design at school and realizing that the middle point between letter styles and design is typography. From his small city in Switzerland, Kkade as gained global recognition for his ultra clean and stylized typographical designs and logos as well as his graffiti and murals both individually and as a member of the Schwarzmaler Crew.

EP 127 - SCOTT NAGY & KRIMSONE

2021/06/01

Krimsone and Scott Nagy formed a friendship as kids and dove headfirst into the local graffiti scene together. Years later they casually joined forces and have spent most of the past few years painting full time as a mural duo. Their explosive use of bold colors and beautifully composed scenes depicting a wide range of native Australian plants and animals have the strange effect of feeling both surreal and familiar at the same time. The two young artists have had a ton of success acquiring walls and

2021/05/01

I am driving with windows down late at night through the sticky Miami heat to meet an artist who has the name of a sci-fi creature and who’s work deals with portals and dimensions of time and space… I have no idea what to expect. When I arrive at HOXXOH’s house what I find is a super laid back guy with a lot to say and a small but aggressive dog who wants me to know right off the bat who the real boss is. As we sit and talk about his work and journey through the art world I realize this space

2021/04/01

Li-Hill was born and raised in Canada but it was while living in Brooklyn that he made his bones in the art world. His rare ability to translate his work across mediums and scale and from 2D to 3D sets him apart and makes him the envy of many artists. From small studio paintings and sculptures to massive murals and public art installations, Li-Hill's work illustrates the intersection between the natural and man-mad world through a beautifully unique and energetic visual language.

2021/03/01

In the late 90s Akut together with two friends formed a crew that would become one of the most influential crews in one of the largest art movements in the history of art. It sounds like an insane statement to make, but the fact is that Akut and the MaClaim crew were expanding the boundaries of what could be done with a spray can and inspiring countless numbers of artists who would later go on to form the beginnings of the new muralism and urban contemporary art scene. In just 4 years they managed
