Art

Taking a picture, Painting a wall, Freezing for one second, is all part of the Arts....the most thing that separates human from animal according to my friend Christian who studies the History Of Art. "Both Human and Animal can create tools to help in their productivity, this has been  documented with proof for a long time. Though till now no animal has been seen drawing something just for fun or to express his feelings, passion, love for life."

The above are pictures taken during the Youth Days 2010. The organization who organized everyone together which is the official not-for-profit organization for Hip Hop culture in Malta did a very good job at this event organized by ETC (Employement and Training Corporation). It's always best to attend events of your same culture and I encourage all local bboys and bgirls to get closer to the local Hip Hop scene.  

Further to 2011

B-Boying in Malta - My View

Breakdance has always been something new to me in Malta and still is till this date. Every year feels like never before. When i started 8 years ago i never thought breakdance could affect my life so much, I see breakdance in my life as being positevly important!

In Malta our breakdance world is one of the tiniest style of dance, yet the power,greatness,peacefulness, kindness, positiveness and life i see in the people around it in our small country makes me really think and believe in a bigger community.

The journey has just started in Malta some years ago, on it's way to flourish generation after generation. The generations forming part of current breakdance scene in Malta, some resulting from prior generations, have never been so high in the local level of breakdance.
