THE KILLER GERBIL X JUICE SG

The Killer Gerbil is invited by local entertainment and lifestyle magazine JUICE to create an artwork based on their magazine cover for an upcoming JUICE annual anniversary party which will be happening at Zouk sometime in November along with 9 other prominent figures in the local industry. Titled "Go JUICE Or Go Home", this artwork is graffiti inspired with a team of Gerbils repping JUICE on a heaven spot (hard-to-reach places such as rooftops and freeway signs, thus making them hard to remove) using cut-out graphics to achieve that 3 dimensional feel to this artwork. Thank you JUICE for the opportunity and to many many successful times ahead!

CONVERSE X COLLABORATORS

The Killer Gerbil was recently given a modeling stint for Converse latest lookbook featuring their latest offerings along with local artist Ink10, hitting up a quick mural for the shoot.

Directed by Singapore's very own Sulhan, it was a definitely great experience to be part of this exciting shoot, painting while trying to look at best in the heat.

Thank you Converse and Nookmag for the opportunity!

LEE JEANS "THE CITY IS MINE"

Sometimes late last year I was approached by the good guys from Streething which runs web-based news that covers daily dosage of urban culture and everything in between to be part of Lee Jeans latest campaign called "The City Is Mine" as featured rider for their latest cycling friendly denims.

Shot and edited by Jules from Streething, the video featured both The Killer Gerbil and the fixed gear culture in Singapore and more. Check it out!

This season, Lee Jeans has expanded their repertoire to include a clothing line geared towards cycling in the city. Dubbed 'Urban Riders', the classic cowboy jeans company moves from horses to bicycles, and with that the focus is on functionality geared towards cyclists rather than the all out ruggedness expected from a pair of denim pants back in the day. The garments feature waterproof zippers, reflective inseams, pockets for mobile phones as well as numerous other touches that move at the pace of the modern day rider.

For their 'The City is Mine' campaign, we caught up with Singaporean visual artist Luthfi Mustafah aka The Killer Gerbil to talk about cycling. While many will know KGB for signature rodent cartoon character, not all who've followed his work throughout the years will know about his interest in fixed gear cycling that started a few years back.

In this video, KGB talks about taking a break from art to work at Lifecycle, a lifestyle bicycle shop. He also talks about his progression in riding preference, as we were all noobs once, so it's nice to hear about that. Then finally, he takes us to his favourite spot to cycle in Singapore.

GRAFA TRIP

Of late I've been taking some time off of things enjoying my day to day doing what I love helping running a super chill local cycling and lifestyle boutique Life Cycle which also serves as yet another platform to connect with a wider range of like-minded individuals locally and abroad.

Last weekend we headed up to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a night stay to meet up with some new found friends to catch up and get together. We were greeted by a young and talented designer/filmmaker/photographer Faz Adhili whom brought us around doing that touristy foodie shit before finding ourselves at Grafa, the new cool spot for all that cycling and design needs run by 3 humble creatives and crew.

I of course took the chance to leave some love around the neighborhood and a quick mural for Faz's studio before heading back to the mainland.

A huge thanks to our Malaysian connection (Faz Adhili Creative Lab, Grafa, Wheel Love) for their hospitality, time and wall space. We can't wait for more in the near future!

123KLAN

The legendary graffiti duo from 123KLAN was in town recently to promote their latest collab with an upcoming Singaporean sneaker label BRONX here in Singapore.

Local heroes Clog02, Zero and yours truly were invited to paint alongside the legends at the official launch that took place at Limited Edition store.

It was definitely an honour to be able to meet the international stars whom had inspired me greatly from day 1 and the good times. Shout out to Chooee from Streething for making this possible!
