Kai started out as a street artist in LA at the age of 14 when he began a quest to get his father to stop smoking by plastering the city with a series of clever images which he called his “Morons” campaign.  He slowly created a buzz within the street art community and concentrated his focus on addressing social issues like consumerism and addictions. By the young age of 18, Kai was becoming more and more known and was asked to participate in a documentary series for Hudson Jeans. This caught the media’s attention and he was mentioned in Los Angeles Magazine as one of the forefront street artists of his time.

Interview with Bryden Lando

Bryden Lando was raised by wolves. Now he is an old sea captain living in Los Angeles. He designs and manufactures clothes. Also, he paints, shoots film and photos, and tries to surf occasionally.  Growing up on the island of Maui, Hawaii, Bryden Lando began painting and illustrating as a young child. Contrary to the stereotypical, laid back reputation of island living, growing up on Maui did anything but mellow out Lando’s creative drive. It hasn’t slowed to date. A multidisciplinary artist, Lando is drawn to illustration, film, painting, photography, and music and fashion design. In 2005, Lando and his brother began Future Heretics. After a growing following in Los Angeles and a great response from press with much celebrity clientele, the brand grew into a full scale men’s and women’s ready to-wear collection. Lando’s artistic sensibilities have been much sought after by some of the top bands, DJs and solo artists in music today. His ever-expanding body of work includes limited edition, custom illustrations and concert posters for some of his favorite bands including Kanye West, Crystal Castles, MGMT, Surfer Blood, Vampire Weekend and Sleigh Bells to name a few.
