RAGE Of course it is often very grueling and stressful but if it were too easy everybody could do this. MC Is it hard for you to come up with new ideas or do they flow from action to action? RAGE I often have a lot of ideas swilling around in my head and definitely do not lack a creative output. But I often feel like I lack both the time and quiet to either implement or work everything out. So technically it is too little for me sometimes. But it certainly is not the case that I have to bend over backwards to produce my current work. MONTANA-CANS For your Montana BLACK Artist Edition can, was it an obvious choice to pick the color black, or did you contemplate other possibilities first? RAGE: No, BLACK was always going to be my first choice. I pre fer to work with a relative combination of colors. Black and white is my favourite color combination of all. The combination creates the greatest contrast and therefore projects a lot of power visually. I don’t require an abundance of colors to achieve my desired goal. MC If you could have done anything different in your graffiti / artistic path until now, what would it be? RAGE If there were, it would be of little significance. MC Is there any where, any train model or any context you still really want to paint? Or is holding it down in your home town more important? RAGE Since I feel arbitrary in a system where I do not face legal action, I remain loyal to the investigative authorities in my city. In addition, it is far more important to me what I do on the train and not the other way, so I move mainly in this area. I prefer to keep my circle small and personal I decided not have a social media presence making it relatively easy to remain anonymous 12 Montana BLACK Artist Edition RAGE
