IN MY LINE OF WORK I COME ACROSS ALOT OF ART IN SKATEBOARDING BUT NOT ALOT OF IT BLOWS ME AWAY AT FIRST GLANCE. BUT THESE TWO IDEAS CERTAINLY DO..... THE FIRST IDEA WAS THE BRAINCHILD OF THE PEOPLE AT REFILL MAGAZINE. IN THIS INSTANCE THEY HAVE COLLABORATED WITH A NUMBER OF WORLD FAMOUS ARTISTS AND BRANDS, WHICH IN ITSELF IS NOT A VERY NEW CONCEPT, BUT IN USING A STATE OF THE ART LAZER ETCHING PROCESS TO CUT EVEN THE MOST INTRICATE DESIGNS INTO THE WOOD THEY HAVE MANAGED TO CREATE THERE OWN UNIQUE SPIN ON A THEME TO AWE INSPIRING EFFECT.
TEAMING UP WITH SUPREME AND MAHARISHI AS WELL AS ARTISTS I HAVE HAD THE HONOR OF EXHIBITING ALONGSIDE SUCH AS FAFI, MR JAGO, DELTA AND MODE 2 THEY ARE A DEFINITE MUST SEE FOR ANY INTERESTED IN SKATE ART.

THE SECOND INSTALLMENT COMES FROM JAPANESE MASTER CRAFTSMAN HAROSHI, WHO TAKES BROKEN SKATEBOARD DECKS AND GIVES THEM A NEW LEASE OF LIFE AS HE REDEFINES THERE FORM INTO SOME INCREDIBLE WORKS. THE COLORS OF THE PLY AND THE SMOOTHNESS OF THE WOOD LEAVES ME WONDERING HOW ON EARTH HE CREATES HIS PIECES, BUT IF ANY OF MY BROKEN DECKS FROM AROUND THE WORLD END UP MOLDED INTO SOME OF HIS ART I WOULD BE TRUELY HONORED.
