What Culture Pirates Means to Me

The Cycle

The items in the first characters mouth represent consumption. Left simplistic, leaving room for interpretation as to what consumption means to you. With so many items being consumed at once, the character’s jaw is broken and the face disfigured. The tear of blood represents, the spikes of cancer rates, obesity, asthma, disease overall, pollution, the displacement of millions of people in order to build dams, wars, extinction.

Here goes a brief and objective bio


By: Alex C. Called an idealist, for one so cynical, turned realist, by the pseudo-empirical. Because “Power To The People” hasn’t been stressed enough, and there is no single unifying idea which could describe the thoughts behind Roberto Enamorado, here goes a brief and objective bio. An unusual kid, one who was street smart without being from the streets, A native New Yorker, who had always lived in a desirable zip code, which sharply contrasted with the visits to his parents native home in Honduras, Central America; Roberto knew the path often avoided, because out of curiosity, that path had been explored. One could wonder where Roberto’s thoughts of empowerment originated. Perhaps it was the early love for subculture, the beginning of which could be traced to the 6th grade, where he was one of the few kids who when asked about his favorite type of music, responded with I like “house music.” The interest in subcultures would continue. In the mid 90’s, it was the non commercial hip hop which caught his attention. Electronica followed and finally a taste for the eclectic was firmly established. All of the music, the clothing, the idea behind the image carried out the same message. There is a different world out there, and this world, corporations can’t seem to quite grasp. Then there were the comic books, a world of their own, bloody, violent, exaggerated anarchical and fantastical. And from these comics grew personal art, curious art, a drawing of Disney’s Thumper, superheroes, Graffiti and finally an individual style, art which is marketable, but with a distinct air of not being for sale.
