My (French)man JWOA sent over this video of FHK getting up on the tracks…something you won’t see happening in Singapore anymore hehe. Saw a bunch of ORSEK (FHK) tags and throw ups when I was in Hong Kong.

If you’re in Indonesia on the 31st, check out FAB FAMILY’s exhibition Family Matters at Galeri Kita.

The UK art duo Tom and Craig aka STATIC will be in Tokyo at the end of August.  Last year they painted a hat for our Hats Off show and sent over their Right Hand Red limited edition print.
