Please introduce yourself.
Mute aka Pro Heroes, born in Greece, graduated from the
graphic arts school, and is addicted to paper and color. "Stuck" with
the sticker art and illustration around 2014. Two years later, the classic
astronaut sticker has traveled almost all over the world.
What's the story behind your street
art name?
The name, "Mute", came by chance, I liked the
combination of letters. "Professional Heroes" shows the need that the
world needs heroes. I made it a profession!
How is the sticker scene in your
city or country?
Sticker scene in Greece, unfortunately, is not very popular
yet. I do not know many people that are into it. Graffiti ,on the other hand,
is high level and Greeks have a worldwide reputation.
How you make your artworks, using
what kind of technique?
I design them digitally only with my Wacom. I am addicted
with Illustrator paths but I also detest straight lines.
How did you play with your stickers
on the streets, did you quite often make a collaboration?
Usually, when I go out in the morning, I always carry
stickers with me and when I see a good spot, I just slap one on it! As far as
collaborations go, there hasn't been any yet, but any proposal is ,of course,
welcomed.
What's the most important, quantity
or quality?
For me, it's always quality.
Can you share us your opinion about
sticker art?
We have done some big steps forward through festivals and
exhibitions and the exchange between designers have raised the level of design
and quality! I believe, if this continues we can make and organize festivals
similar to graffiti ones.
