RMSr.2- THRASHER takes its inspiration from a prolific skate culture magazine by the same name. Having grown up in the mid 90's, the artist looks to his collection of skate ephemera and identifies the lasting influence of the subculture on his life and Southern California at large. Highlighting words like "sick & chearful," which are scribed on the postcard's rear by its original sender, addresses a type of colloquial slang that shifts its interpretation through time and social setting.

This work was created during 2020, a time when the artist freuently reminised about the small businesses and "mom-n-pop" skate shops that fortified a sense of comminity and cultural expression in his local neighborhood. A nostalgic past time that now faces an increasing threat from wide-spread gentrification and pandemic related shut-downs.

This NFT is an editioned collectible based on the original art object. :)
