Why cups in fences?

The great thing about cuprocking is that the fencing I use has natural geometric symmetry, which I can work with to create some out there, intricate patterns and murals. It's not simple but it is almost limitless in terms of what you can do with it. Inner vision creates apparition.

Where did this come from?

The idea germinated when I was a kid playing soccer and all the kids used to squash their drink bottles and rubbish into the fence. Being quite imaginative as a youngin, I would see the patterns and shapes emerge and would then add more junk to create patterns or words. It wasn't until a long time afterwards that I got into conversation with good friend 'n' fellow artist Tim Moore. We were talking about innovative ideas, art and fences and then....BOOM, it came to me....cups....the perfect geometric shape to fit into a diamond. Time froze right there 'n' I ran with it knowing this was going to revolutionise bombin'. I kept it so ninja for four years, hitting up the streets of Sydney 'n' by 2007 kats were just catching on. Chess not checkers baby.

What's the craziest piece you've done?

Well, I've done lots of pieces in crazy places like a cop station and on top of huge cliffs and bridges, but it's what's to come that are the ones to watch. I get more cryptic and complex with each new piece and I'm now working on multi layered fencing creating huge three 'n' four dimensional images. Yep, watch out!
