Q: So give us the basic intro…name, place of birth, age, etc.
A: Hello, my name is Chris Semer, and I was born in Newark, OH. I am 27 years old and I enjoy Bourbon. I currently live in Columbus, OH.
Q: How did you get involved with Breeze Block?
A: My #1 Pal Jeremy “Raskoe” Nichols hooked me up with you guys.
Q: What sparked art in your life, how long have been arting, what’s your art background.
A: I’m not sure what really sparked it… I have been making pictures since I was a tiny guy. I was always an observant little fellow.
Q: What do you think about graffiti/vandalism these days?
A: I think it’s become somewhat homogenized due to things like magazines and the interweb and shit. I’m not mad though. Just gotta roll with the punches.
Q: How long have you and Raskoe been buds?
A: Almost a year. We share a few common interests, such as talking shit.
Q: If I gave you a million dollars, what would you do with it? Would you give some to Raskoe?
A: I would probably do a whole lot of nothing if I had money. Like the guy from Office Space. I might buy Raskoe’s cat some stuff, I love that cuddly guy.
Q: Who are some of your favorite artists?
A: Klimt, Egon Schiele, Rembrandt, Sargent, Colossus of Roads, Joe Sorren, Ekundayo, Os Gemeos… a lot of guys I’m probably forgetting.
Q: Do you have an awesome day job?
A: It could be worse I suppose. I’m a professional with scissors and exacto knives now though.
Q: Where do you see yourself in five years?
A: Hopefully somewhere better than I am now. I’ve heard good things about Portland.
Q: How excited are you to visit Breeze Block? Move to Portland!
A: Oh man I’m pumped! Especially after hearing about this Britney Spears/Justin Timberlake dance-off. That’s my dude right there.
Oh my god – we LOVE Justin too! Let’s get our sexy on.
