Episode 010 - Justin Bua

This is a short and sweet episode with painter extraordinaire Justin Bua. You will notice that it's a bit more tough to hear- and this is because I was granted access to chat with him at an event in a supper club downtown Montreal. I was thrilled to meet him in person; I interviewed him almost 20 years ago when I was running and co-operating a music magazine called Vinyl. What I find interesting - is the same genuine kindness and concern to connect with people then, shone through no as well. It's a short interview not only because he was being pulled in a million directions, but also because a vicious thunder and lightening storm started and the make shift space we were in was in face the terrace that was closed in and we were getting drizzled on at first, and slowly but surely rained on. I would like to note, it didn't stop Justin one bit - I was more worried. Regardless, there are many gems that he drops in this short interview and happy to be able to share this with you. Justin Bua's work has been synonymous with capturing our culture , Hip Hop Idols, the raw and classic cool of Jazz and modern day heroes and icons. His work has become a baseline for all things reflective and cool pretty much like himself. He is rooted in gratitude and I feel that propels his creativity and his career further. I would love to chat with him in depth at a later date to see how some of the projects he talks about develop. Give thanks for giving this short capsule a listen and as always please feel free to send me your thoughts, feedback and comments.
