Skount is a Spanish artist and a master chef living in Amsterdam. We talk about the Holy Waters of Lourdes, the almost non-existent lockdown during the pandemic in Amsterdam, turning clubs into gyms, the can-do spirit of the Dutch, painting in Copenhagen, the crazy story of how he ended up living in Amsterdam and most likely avoided jail time in Panama, creating menus, meeting in Venice 12 years ago, taking cabs around LA, the importance of signing and copyrighting your murals, getting inspired by the artist Laguna, the best department store in Tokyo: Tokyu Hands, daytime missions in Shibuya, the use of masks and symbolism in his work, his experiences with ayahuasca and getting dosed by a shaman with peyote, the meaning behind his name and getting inspired by everything.
