Today we get a glimpse into the dark arts of graffiti with one of the world’s most preeminent street artists. The Dotmaster’s work has been likened to Banksy with his widespread use of humorous, detailed, thought-provoking stenciling. We chart his early beginnings; discuss the double-sided arguments that beset graffiti and the social dichotomy between ‘vandalism’ and ‘art’. He also shares his controversial views on the controlling aspects of Arts Council funding and why we probably would all be better off without it. And we also learn why drawing “cock & balls” is the “Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3…” of the trade.
