Yes! I would like to thank Maertyrer skateboards, Dufarge, Bombaklats, Intus, G-Tay,Yamato Living Ramps, Endboss Crew, Woodstonekugelblitz, and Liar’s Dice. But I lost the energy to do that so now I’m looking for some new people to play with and possibly form a band. Yes, I play guitar and keys, actually I was in a band but as things progressed I wanted to try some new things, so I stopped playing with other people and started to perform as a one-man band for a while. No not at all, I just found a job here so when my school starts in December, I will be trying to combine my studies with my job and use my free time to do my graphic design, skate, and play music. Here’s an example: I’m working on this ad for a brand and I keep thinking about my friends there, so I start to draw them and out of that comes the ad.Ĭan you currently live from your design work? It starts when I get an idea, I start working from that idea, allowing my intuitions to take me were I need to go. Most of my drawings come to me spontaneously. They give me the freedom to do what I like and that works best for me. I’ve been making some T-shirts and stickers for them for about a year now. What are you working on at the moment?Īt the moment I am working on some new designs for Yamato Living Ramps. It’s a fun thing to do when I’m not busy doing other things.īesides Shit Fire you are doing freelance work as a designer. ![]() And after the tour I just kept on drawing these skateboard jokes about the things I was seeing around me. At first it was just a joke that started to evolve. Shit Fire was an idea I had last year on the Spot Delivery tour. You are also doing skateboard comics under the name Shit Fire. So I had to learn a whole new language, which was difficult but fun, though! Well, when I applied to the school in Rotterdam, I thought everything be in English, but once I got there I quickly found out I was wrong! All the classes where taught in Dutch (laughs). My job would then be to guide these people in their creative process. ![]() It’s more focused on using art as a medium for people to express emotions and deal with issues they may have. It’s a pretty new type of profession for Germany. So after finishing school and having spent the last six years in Rotterdam, I slowly started to miss Germany, and I felt like I needed a new place to explore.Īfter I finished my studies in Rotterdam, I didn’t see myself working in graphic design for the rest of my life, so I applied for a new course here in Berlin called Art & Therapy. The school in Rotterdam was a bit more open to young people, because they feel that by doing this the school can shape and guide the students’ process towards becoming graphic designers. Actually, I also applied here in Berlin but didn’t get accepted. Yes! After I Finished high school in Dusseldorf, I applied to some schools for graphic design. So Stefan, you just moved from Rotterdam back to Germany, Berlin to be exact. ![]() So I thought it would be nice to introduce him to this new face that is Stefan Scholten. So we did the social dance and now we are slowly starting to see each other a bit more in Berlin. But it’s just not socially smart to go up to somebody and assume he or she knows you, because if the other person doesn’t remember, you end up looking kind of stupid. I clearly remember skating with him in Holland, and later seeing his footage in the Bombaklats video. The truth is, I almost knew directly who he was. Upon seeing him, I went up asked, “Don’t I know you from somewhere? Rotterdam perhaps? He had the same feeling and we both reintroduced ourselves. Stefan just showed up at the MBU spot in Berlin one day.
