@mikeyfebruary on the cover of
@monsterchildren issue 74.
I grew up reading MC, it was a curated highlight reel of the subcultures that existed beyond this amazing little island I call home. It introduced me to different artists, surfers, musicians and all sorts of interesting ideas that didn’t always feel accessible or tangible back then.
A few months back
@campbelljmilligan hit me up asking if I had anything to contribute to the new issue after their long break from print. I was already stoked just to be involved, so finding out this photo ended up on the cover was a pretty wild, full-circle moment.
Funnily enough, I’ve always felt pretty removed from these worlds, more of an observer than a participant, so it’s a real honour to see my work printed. When something ends up on a page, it feels intentional, and as a kid, that intention shaped a lot of how I see things now.
Thanks for being the king of style Mikey & thankyou Monster Children for keeping print alive.
For anyone who connects with this image, I’ve released a small limited-edition print of it on my site.
