Although he's painted those five letters for 29 years, Yesca has never mixed his graffiti with his commercial endeavours, despite a loyal following who desperately wishes he would.
Here we talk about why: his philosophy about graffiti and how he feels about his gallery work honouring his graffiti aesthetic without selling what he believes should be free.
On this episode, we have a great chat about his punk political graffiti roots and have a good bitch about the commercialisation of murals and the limits on artists when creating for a crust. He also shares a lot of wisdom gathered from his graffiti OG influences over the years.
