More from Bigfoot:
Bigfoot is a California based nature loving artist,and has been a influence in the skateboard industry for more than a decade. Originally from New Jersey ,young Bigfoot fled to California to be closer to big trees and the Grateful Dead. Disassociated from art school and human society, in 1994 he started writing “Bigfoot” in the streets of San Francisco with relentless fury.Working often with house paint and wooden panels ,his work depicts the conflict between the respect for nature held by the artist’s cast of Bigfoot characters and the destructive agenda of mankind. Despite his reclusive nature, Bigfoot has managed to stay active in society, designing skateboard graphics and footwear,showing in galleries in America and Japan,the release of his vinyl figure with Strangeco in 2004,and more recently his collaborations with The North Face and Hurley. His eponymous character and his love of heavy metal and especially the masked rock group KISS, play a major role in his studio work as well as his highly recognized art.
