From the Gallery to the Streets: Skateboards for Hope Turns Art into Impact

Back in 2016, Skateboards for Hope was already changing lives by donating used skateboards to young people in Kanesatake, Cuba, and Uganda, sparking creativity, confidence, and passion. With the help of more than 40 Montreal artists, each board was transformed into a one of a kind piece of art.

The exhibition, titled Fresh Hope, was curated and assembled by Adida Fallen Angel and his devoted partner Ana V. It was held at the Fresh Paint street art gallery and won the hearts of everyone who came to see it.

After the show, the painted decks were shipped to different parts of the world and donated to kids who face difficulties getting access to skate gear. A beautiful blend of art, love, and action.

This video features the installation My Faded Memoirs and The Power of One, created at Fresh Paint Gallery in Montreal, June 2012.

The work explores memory as a fragile collection of moments.

A personal reflection shaped by changing styles, evolving skills, and shifting self-awareness.

The installation represents the cycle of life,

Each element is a piece of a larger narrative,

Support artists who speak truth through creation.

A Ride Through Creation – Interview with Adida Fallen Angel (2014).

This short and fun interview was filmed back in 2014 during my time as the graphic designer for Creation Skateboards.

I got into Creation thanks to my dear friend Chris Dyer, who opened the door and welcomed me into the family.

Being a skater for over 25 years, finally seeing my own art on pro skateboards was a dream come true.

Massive thanks and love to everyone who contributed to this little film.

Live Painting @ Jin-G Store, Tel Aviv

Back in 2012, I was invited to paint live at the Jin-G Skate & Surf store in Tel Aviv. I showed up, brushes ready, just as the city was hit with sirens.

Because when the world shakes, art becomes louder.

Sadly, the war was never really over.

I was never into politics, and I don’t live there anymore,

Big love to the Jin-G crew for holding space for creativity, even in chaos.

🔻 David Lynch - A Tribute 🔻

From the first time I watched Eraserhead, to the haunting beauty of Blue Velvet and the dreamlike world of Twin Peaks, Lynch has shaped my love for the bizarre, the surreal, and the deeply human. His work isn't just film, it's a state of mind, a place where darkness and light dance in eerie harmony.

Beyond cinema, his paintings, music, and relentless work ethic have been a lifelong inspiration. He embraced the odd, the unsettling, the unseen, turning them into something profoundly moving.

What blows my mind even more is how deeply he was into meditation. The idea that someone who created such haunting, eerie, and intense work was also so dedicated to inner peace is incredible to me. He tapped into something beyond the surface, balancing darkness with light in a way that feels almost otherworldly.

This piece is my tribute to a visionary who will be missed but never forgotten. Thank you David for all the inspiration.

Art Attack 01 at Fresh Paint Gallery in Montreal

Back on December 6 in 2013 a new chapter began as Fresh Paint Gallery launched a bold new format with ART ATTACK.

In an intimate space filled with raw energy three artists came together for a live wall collaboration

They painted directly on a 15ft by 8ft wall inspired by a surprise theme they chose together

It was a night of creativity connection and pure artistic flow.

The Great Wave – a short video art piece that first appeared in the Japan-themed issue of ZOOZ Magazine, later became part of a larger journey. What began at the Jaffa Port evolved into a full art installation, exhibited at the Israeli Museum in Tel Aviv as part of the World Press Photo Exhibition in December 2012.

Blending motion, energy, and emotion, this visual work captures a moment suspended between culture and movement, framed through a lens of artistic collaboration.

Big Newspaper, Wallpaper glue, wall, paper, night time and lots of street Art…These are my friends, we know each other well, we rise and fall like the seasons, we are not here to stay, we are here to fade away.

I met Daniel when I was stuck in Israel in 2011, it was at the Vision Tattoo shop in Tel-Aviv, I was curious about his actions since he was filming the tattoo artists in a very interesting way, I notice his passion right away and after a short talk I knew he was one of the good guys. We decided to hit the streets together, me with my post-up Artworks and him with his impressive video gear and vision, we had great time running around the streets at night and got fantastic action both from his perspective and mine. A few months passed away and everything including the artworks has faded, lucky for me Daniel took some time off and did an amazing visual compilation of that night.

Enjoy!
