Artist interview - Who is Dase?

Welcome back to what has become a common practice for us, interviewing artists from all over the world who are mainly connected to street art and graffiti, but not only. 

This time Dase is the special guest that we had the pleasure to talk to in our latest artist interview. If you enjoy this format or have other questions that you would like us to ask the artists, please let us know in the comments below. 

With that said, enjoy this short and sweet interview with Dase!

- Who are you?

I am Dase, the vegan artivist. I am from Barcelona, Spain, and I was born in the 90s.

- When and why did you start doing art?

I started painting graffiti in 2006 in Barcelona because I was involved in the hip-hop culture but I have been drawing since i was a kid.

- How would you describe your art?

My artworks combine powerful messages to raise awareness about animal exploitation and our mother nature.

Aesthetically, they usually mix realistic images with abstract shapes such as large brush strokes, one line art, geometrical patterns and lettering.
