PJ Richardson discovered graffiti. It brought him fulfilment when chaos was present in his early life.

The chaos hasn't gone away; it has only changed shape and form. We discuss his journey from painting walls to leading a Los Angeles-based motion and design studio, what today's chaos looks like, and how he finds the space to create great art within it in the commercial world.

We discuss:

• Trauma and resilience
• Abandon mindset when all else seems lost
• The need to create 'sandboxes' and 'playgrounds' to avoid stifling creativity with procedure and protocol.
• Laundry's conception and evolution.
