To introduce readers to some of the Street Artists in the upcoming show “Street Art Saved My Life: 39 New York Stories”, BSA asked a number of the artists to take part in “Back Talk” with one of our most trusted and underground and sweet sources for modern art, Juxtapoz.
Today we talk to White Cocoa.
What is your most defining characteristic?
“Probably my choice of medium… I don’t know a lot of other artists, street or otherwise, who work only in colored pencils. I love when people look at my work and have no idea how I did it, or assume it’s an oil painting. I just love my pencils!”
