'The Creative Lives' Season 2 Featuring Mike Giant

Spanning graffiti, tattoos and fine art, Giant is nothing short of a creative powerhouse.

Mike Giant is a creative powerhouse, having endeavored into the disciplines of graffiti, tattooing and fine art in his time. Shot during his solo exhibit at Guerrero Gallery in San Francisco, Giant offers an account of his path so far, from his beginnings in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the effect of his color-blindness on his art, to the meaning of graffiti to him, and his current venture in the form of Rebel8. Peppered throughout by vignettes of the artist by his close friends, enjoy the 17-minute account of Mike Giant by clicking the play button above.
