Dive in head first and get to know Leigh: graphic designer, illustrator, graffiti artist, some might even say outlaw...we enjoyed our chat so much that we ended up getting too much material and had to break it up over two episodes!

In part one of this two part episode, we chat to helo samo as we unpack the concept and stories behind his creations. helo samo is a mixed media artist using methods from illustration, installation, animation sound, film and photography to portray the relationship between dreams, human behaviour, nature and different states of consciousness. We touch on some serious topics throughout our chats as his work deals with how everything we consider OK in society has a numbing impact on us, how we are experiencing a disconnection between man and nature, the manipulation cocktails administered by figures we trust and our own vanity.
