Time graffiti művész: „Felülmúlni önmagad”

2021. Aug. 2. | Interviews

Time graffiti artist his motivation to surpass himself with each subsequent step. He actively uses the old school style, which he mixes with newer solutions.

How long have you been painting?

I got to know graffiti in 1994/95 and painted the first one in the summer of 1995.

Where did the stage name come from?

I have been writing this name since 1997, with minor and major mutations. I actually started drawing 3D letters and sorted them out. Which has caused a lot of trouble since then, as it is not easy to depict / wrap them well. I've been planning another name instead of Time for a long time, with better letters, but I haven't come up with it yet. Soon.

How did this style develop and what would you call it?

Mint akkoriban sokaknak a Style Wars című dokumentum film volt az oktató video. Szóval aktívan használom az old school stílust, amit keverek az újabb megoldásokkal. Hogyan nevezném? WOW, hát így. 😀

Is there a graffiti group you are a member of?

DCK! 😀

Illegal or legal painting?

I prefer to move on the legal line. In the past, I visited 1-2 places uninvited...

Over the years, have you had any confrontations with the authorities?

Voltak kellemetlen pillanatok… 😀

What motivates you to create?

My motivation is to surpass myself with each next step.

Do you see graffiti as a hobby or a livelihood?

Both. This is my main job.

Was there a part of your career that made you feel like you were quitting for good?

There were/are waves, but I never felt the need to stop.

What do you think about graffiti?

In my world, it's a therapy, self-expression, goal, motivation, refuge.

Most memorable blowout?

Voltak kalandok.. egész éjjel menekülős, bujkálós, vonat alatt mászkálós, durva volt.. de Koszovóban a Meeting of Styles-on festés közben hívtak és vittek el kocsival megrendelést csinálni. Ez mondjuk pozitív volt. 😀 Bár nem mondom, hogy nem aggódtam mikor a balkánon egy idegen kocsijába szálltam be… 😀

What would you say to those who are just getting to know the genre?

Gyakoroljatok, tanuljatok, ne elégedjetek meg a minimállal! A trash az trash..  akárhogy szépítjük. 😀

Who would you like to thank for making you stick with your art?

I would like to thank those writers who did not give up, who are still coming up with exemplary works and can inspire.

HELLO
my name is

The artist's creative style is a kind of visual psychodrama that mixes the freedom of street art, eclectic excess, the dreamlike quality of surrealism and the honesty of dissecting the inner world. In his work he likes to put familiar characters, icons and paintings in a new context, often holding up a mirror. When he starts an inner dialogue in someone, the magic has already happened.

He doesn't have much patience when it comes to painting, but he likes to work a lot on his posters and digital graphics and spend time on smaller details. He always has an urge to create something. It's been with him since he was little and will probably stay with him forever.
