05.01.07/ ST/ART FOR CHARITY

Just before Christmas Hong Kong's Biggest ABC Book hit the shelves with artwork created entirely by local HK celebrities, designers, photographers and artists. The whole thing was created to raise money for the Child Developemnt Council and of course the entire ST/ART collective was asked to contribute – proving once again that there is much more to urban artists than just painting on walls.

01.01.07/ NEW YEAR, FRESH ST/ART

Welcome 2007 to one and all and a very heartfelt THANK YOU from all the ST/ART collective for all the support, encouragement and positive vibes we've received over the past year.

Here's to another year of good times and positive action for urban artists everywhere.

15.12.06 / ISLAND JAM Vol. 2

12.12.06 / C#NDOM PROJECT 1

The boys over at C#NDOM Workshop (C# and Start From Zero) just completed their first commercial commision adding some colour and life to the lobby of Wilson & Wong's in Kwai Chung. As well as creating a piece that represented wealth, there was also a Fung Shui element to ward off evil at the door. Nice.

16.10.06 / IT ROCKED...

This weekend no fewer than 15 of the ST/ART collective gathered to create a massive piece over two days at the Rockit Music Festival.

Big shout to Emma and Nimal at Rockit for all their support and help. Check out our Projects section for more pix.

06.10.06 / ST/ART IN TAIPEI

ST/ART collective Start From Zero, Big Mad, Katol and Graphic Airlines have just got back from a "cultural exchange" trip to Taipei where they met up with local artists B Brother and Granix to share ideas, generally see what's up, and of course, get busy on the street. Check out the Start From Zero website for a full rundown of the wicked long weekend. More overseas hook-ups are planned - spread the word!

21.09.06 / ST/ART will ROCKIT

It's that time of year again for hot sun, cold beer and great music at the awesome Rockit Music Festival - and we're happy to announce that the entire ST/ART collective has been invited to add a little visual entertainment to proceedings. Keep the weekend October 14 & 15 free and check out the rest of the line-up which includes Ian Brown, Goldie and Adam F at www.rockit-hk.com

12.09.06 / ONE FOR THE KIDS

It's non-stop over here at ST/ART HQ as another little project sees the light of day - this time a commission to give some positive vibes to a youth outreach centre over in Chaiwan HK. More than half the crew got together to spread the word of Home & Dreams and demonstrate yet again the ST/ART commitment to doing stuff that matters rather than just trying to be "street".

08.09.06 / WWW.STARTFROMZERO.ORG

The legend, the mighty Dom aka START FROM ZERO has just launched his very own super slick website at www.startfromzero.org. Tons of gallery pix, background info and a very well stocked shop with loads of cool merch inside. Thanks due to ST/ART collective members Katol and C# for their help on the site. Go check it out and get yourself a very limited SFZ fluffy bag. Oh yes!

25.08.06 / TRASHY LAUNCH

Big up to the one and only GraphicAirlines for a great book launch last week at APM in Kwun Tong. There was piles of trash, models, sculptures and of course lots of books.. The talented team even did a Q&A session with the assembled crowds. Nice work! Go to GraphicAirlines website to see more and buy a book!

25.08.06 / EXTRA LARGE C#NDOM

The boys over at C#NDOM workshop just never stop working... Their "day" started at 430am bombing a 100ft wall in North Point (with Ping), from there they went straight to film an interview for an independant documentary on street art. And still with creative energy left over, they then went and did a live demo and customisation gig for the Eastpak road show. OK boys, take a rest.
