We talked about his Paste Platz project and he elaborated on the work that went into putting it together and how he gave different artists a voice. We talked about the value of wheat paste and the importance of sharing creations locally. Our conversation as they usually do got a little deep and we touched on society, communities, and the current state of the world we are living in.
