Are you the kind of person who always loses the remote control ?
Maybe you get off the couch, head to the fridge to grab a beer and some pickled cabbage pretzels and leave your remote control in the vegetable drawer – then over the next 3 days, you tear the house apart searching incessantly for it ?
In my case, it’s the car keys. I’ve lost my keys so many times, I tried to install a clapper on the keyring – but the awkward size proved to be a bit uncomfortable in my pants pocket.
On a regular basis we’ll ask a new sticker artist a series of 10 questions. To keep things simple and to engage in a deeply philosophical, long term case study of the scientifically complicated “Sticker Artist’s mind,” we’ve decided to leave the questions the same every week.
We first became aware of David Lanham‘s work through a series of excellent Icons that adorned our computer desktops, long before we ever knew who made them.
Years later, when David placed his first sticker order for clear vinyl stickers, we put two and two together and placed the name to the artist and fell in love with his fun, colorful and highly imaginative stickers. Naturally it was only a matter of time before we sat down and asked David Lanham to Answer 10 Questions..

New York City Street Artist, and adhesive fiend, Billi Kid has become well known for his massive public sticker combos, where he collects stickers from artists around the world, takes to the streets and covers entire surfaces with outdoor stickers.
Billi’s adhesive weapons of choice include vinyl silkscreen stickers, die cut, stenciled decals and hand drawn, repurposed USPS labels.
When it comes to his public sticker combos, aside from a few basic rules of etiquette, (like: don’t sticker angry pitbulls, stay off of valuable city property and never cover a police officer in stickers – unless of course he is asleep,) anything is fair game… Dumpsters, Dividers, Trailers, Construction Walls, and Random, Immobile Urban Objects.
Here is a compilation of 10 Outdoor Sticker Combos on the Streets of New York by Billi Kid. Note: Following the images, we credited as many of the Sticker Artists as we could! If you see any names we’re missing, let us know in the comments below.

Gregg Gordon is an extremely talented graphic artist and designer, who makes a living doing what he loves, making art and selling merch. Gregg has been printing his silkscreen stickers with us for years and we can always spot one of his unique creations. This week we asked Gregg aka “GIGART,” purveyor of fine silkscreen stickers and posters (among other things) to sit down and answer 10 questions..
I wanted to share an extremely rad video from Israel based artists, Broken Fingaz Crew… I had a chance to work with Gon and Raz from BRC on a Primus poster a couple of months back (below).
Here, Crew members Tant and Unga paint the walls in Israel. Music by Boreta & Glitch Mob.
We set up a “Sticker Community” on Google.. And we called it “Stickers.”
