When I was a child, experiences were only told by my parents , in the family unit I was growing up. So I wanted to externalize something, I always liked to communicate, also if not verbally. So, an image was for me a good way to express myself - Hero

With time I understood that the only efficient answer is that I do it for myself - Hero

No, I would never leave the illegal scene. It’s about freedom. If I am not limiting your freedom, why are you limiting mine? I don’t understand how can they limit colours ? - Hero

Some trains are kind of worth more. When writers meet they talk about different trains and different train yards where they’ve been. When you meet a new writer, you always have some places or trains to identify with and talk around. Local trains are generally more worth painting. For example the old Dutch banana train (the yellow one floor train called ‘doggie’), the Spanish ‘mirror trains’, Berlin’s yellow subway, Southern Sweden’s purple trains or Danish’s old red S-train. People used to go to Copenhagen just to paint that one. [Aso – 26, Stockholm]
