'it's good enough to be mad'


The Zoo Project fascinates me; the work's great, there's a lot of it in Paris, but he's more elusive than Banksy.

News from Remed: he's collaborated with RQM to release a limited edition record package, each of which includes a segment of the image below:


Remed explains the image:

RQM: What's the idea behind this COLORS FADE piece?
REMED: So....the idea for this COLORS FADE piece...it came out after long talks with RQM about his songs and words....the idea is to tell the story of a human relation through love. Contrast, intensity, explosion, and the seed of the next contrast. So the painting is a chain of events in the love of two people. So in the painting u have at first the meeting of one man and one woman, both ready to meet and create love, or passion more than love...then after the meeting, the intensity of their will to share their life and love leads to the fusion of their soul and body creating a two headed one bodied character...love around them...but then the tension is getting high, too strong, the lightening comes to change the colors...and the body and soul split because of some inevitable choices to preserve the essence of these two souls afraid of losing themselves, afraid of becoming something diferent..but then the final step is when the man transfers his pain to the tree and gets some light back straight to his head...further on, there s part of the body of a woman, he don't know if her face will be the same or not, cause she's kind of hidden, she's here anyway, and there's an intense red way reaching a new door to open..he'll sure be able to give his heart again somewhere over there.

RQM: Is there such a thing as a REMED color scheme?
REMED: I like saturated colors cause they are close to their truth...they are light-full, but I like to mix them with black which is the absence of light, or white which is the pure light...and sometimes grey which is the inbetween and reveal them better.

Remed's also been out on the street recently:
