Futura; Melbourne







Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to Melbourne to spend some time with an iconic figure.  
A man whose unique art has captivated streets around the world for decades, and a man whose artistic flair has also seen him conquer the sneaker and streetwear worlds too.  Of course, it's the one and only Futura.
In Melbourne as part of the Hennessy x Futura Limited Edition collab that has seen the world leading cognac company partner with this graffiti figurehead, Futura was in town to celebrate the release of his personally designed limited edition bottle with street art walks, signings and a party.
I'm in the process of putting together a video about the day, but in the meantime here are some stills of the great man who was rocking classic All Stars through his trip, a shoe picked up in Moscow during a recent visit.  His last visit there was in 1984 and the shoe reminds him of the trip and the place so was a sentimental reminder of yesteryear for an artist who has always been known for looking to the Future.
