RIP 2/2/12 ARKS4 aka ANSWERFOUR aka MING (UBC / WESTA). True indonesian graffiti legend. I wouldn't be here if its not because of him. My true mentor! Good bye my friend.. :(
Finally, MASE Crew get together to make this gigantic wall. This is the first wall that we did with the crew's since Abang was in Jakarta. The concept basically was writing "MASE" with their individual styles and they only allow to used one color scheme. The spot was more than 30m long, and the weather was crazy, it was poured with rain. On the first day, when we got there we couldn't do shit because the spot was flooding. I will post the full wall and the video later. Just hang loose..
This is typical Jakarta's traffic. Jakarta is the country's economic, cultural and political centre. Has an area of 661 square kilometres (255 sq. mil). Home to 9.6 million people who at least drive a motorcycle and cars to go to work or to move around the city everyday. It is the most populous city in Indonesia and in Southeast Asia, and is the thirteenth-largest city in the world. Without no decent public transport, 5-10 years from now, is it indeed that Jakarta will have an economic crisis due to the traffic that increase every year. The city still suffers a lack of urban public transport services due to the prioritized development of road networks, which is mostly designed to accommodate private vehicles.
I still can't believe after with all the traffic and bad public transportation, the government still confuse about the solutions. Well, i guess the government need to follow how the dutch manage to change their road from designed vehicles to cycling infrastructure.
- This was a complete chaos but in a good way. We came to the spot, without knowing what to paint and with random color of spray cans Me and Mumu came up with the idea to write MASE. But not that simple, we actually do it on top of each others without no sketch. Just freestyle ! MMAASSEE to be exact !
