Insane skateshape

After looking at Lars Kjemhols awesome exhibition at Galleri Maria Veie, Urtegata 32, I was sure I had to get in touch. His eager around skateboards and shape is really something. After sending some e-mails, I realized that he might be pretty busy after his exhibition....

Then suddenly he poped by my work, alis sweatshop, and we talked about doing some stuff, having some boards in the shop, but best of all, me decorating one of his boards, AND BETTER, being able to shape it myself.

So, where to start, shape, design, shape, design, paint... At least there is no lack of inspiration in the skateboard industry...

"Lars Kjemphol lager skateboard for hånd etter to års utvikling og testing av brettenes form, material-sammensetning og produksjonsmåte. Brettene skal kunne brukes i gata, men også fungere som råmateriale for skulpturer, eller som et slags tredimensjonalt lerret. Gjennom bruk av brett som lerret har Kjemphol også invitert en rekke andre kunstnere til å skape verk på brett"
