“Photograffeur” JR Gives Valuable Advice During His Interview With Juxtapoz
Photo Credit: www.jr-art.net
Reading Juxtapoz‘ new May 12th edition magazine, I encountered a quote written in yellow and white on a light brown block, it read:
“YOU DON’T NEED ANYTHING, YOU DON’T NEED TO BUY ANYTHING OR OWN ANYTHING BECAUSE REALLY, YOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU.”
Encountering this quote by JR during his interview with Kristin Farr from Juxtapoz, it triggered a memory:
It was summer, 2008, I was young and just realizing that parentheses around your bank account balance meant you were in the negative. Being the independent type, it was an embarrassing tragedy; I was $40 dollars in debt and I hadn’t started my new job yet. It became apparent that I would, begrudgingly, have to ask my father for money and use my rolled quarters to pay for gas.

Interview with Eve Skylar: A Visual Story-Teller
"At the Epoch of Eras: Utopian Marketplace" by Eve Skylar
“‘Broken’ and ‘hope’ are the two strong words to describe the Rusted Souls’ world: broken robots, broken people, broken ideals, and the thing that persevered was the people’s hope for the future.” -Eve Skylar
Eve Skylar, one of our featured artists and top-sellers from the current exhibition, gave us some comical and in-depth answers during her interview:
Can you talk a little bit about your work in this exhibit and how it relates to “The Rusted Souls“?
When James proposed “The Rusted Souls” as a concept art themed show, I was thrilled to see how the different worlds might look like: totalitarian, utopian, and dystopian states. Having worked as a production designer and concept artist on
animated films, I tend to see paintings through the cinematic lens. So I wanted to create a narrative of the Rusted Souls environments through a progression of shapes and color.
What kind of artist do you consider yourself?
I am a visual story-teller/artist. I tell stories through my art.

Meet Gaby: Leader of The Rusted Souls
Who is Gaby?
Gaby is an orphaned 12-year-old girl surviving in a future apocalyptic world where robots (the Mechs) slaughter and retrain any humans against them. Orphaned when her two freedom fighter parents were killed, Gaby then stumbled on a refugee camp. There she was mentored by an elderly woman with the abilities to disrupt time and space. Now with her extra-sensory powers, martial arts training and her troop, The Rusted Souls, Gaby plans to lead humanity back from the darkness and kill all robots in her way!
