Through my trials and tribulations, my attempts, successes, and failures, I have never met a challenge I didn't wish to bring to its fullest potential.
All or Nothing
My brain is wired with an on and an off switch. I am either all in to a project, idea or lifestyle, or frankly I am all out. It's hanging above the door to my childhood home, "Whatever you are, be a Good One." I intend to be the best at whatever this project, 'Spray Moby' is, or will turn out to be.
I am a creative person. I like to creatively solve problems and I am especially good at big picture thinking. Moby has me particularly stumped when it comes to long term planning with the brand however. The brand had its origins out of necessity to create..
What is next for Spray Moby?
I have begun contacting muralists in the state of Michigan to throw up murals onto Moby this Summer, 2026. My hope is to activate Moby in popular tourist destinations throughout the Michigan summer. I hope to access key members of street art communities to help fully immerse destinations Moby visits to the magic that is street art.
A dream of mine is to purchase a big set of spray paint and caps, masks and gloves, and host a community free wall, where artists from all scopes of life can approach the wall and paint something with an aerosol can. I think by doing this, getting someone their first work on a wall, could help propagate seeds for early artists, thus planting future communities of artists in host communities. By offering a free, legal, public space to do so, I hope to endorse legal practices of street art.
Why Moby?
As a creative, I feel the need to leave something behind for those who come after me, simply as proof that I was here. If nothing else, a quick window into what it was like to be creative in the year 2026. We are all going to die. We all have a terminal diagnosis, as part of the whole being human thing. Spray Moby exists as one of those ways for artists to yell at the top of their lungs, "I WAS HERE!!!" To bring unique perspective to a canvas from an individual walk of life, momentarily produce a snapshot of it for people to see, then to continue on their way. I hope artists can appreciate the non permanent nature of Moby.
Spray Moby incentivizes a free wall culture on the exterior walls of the van. My reason for not hosting permanent murals is because time comes and goes, and nothing is permanent in the end. I can recognize certain respect components in the culture, but it is part of interacting with Moby that an artist must recognize the non permanency of the work they put on the canvas. The wall is meant for work to be iterated, painted over, iterated, and painted over again. Nothing stays forever on Moby.
