Above, Addict take some time to sit down and chat with Liverpudlian artist Swifty about his life, career, skateboarding, and his work with the brand. Swifty’s work was a huge influential force in UK music in the 80’s and 90s’s and this short film takes us inside his own personal studio, covered floor to ceiling in many of his creations from over the years. If you have a spare 12 minutes, I highly recommend taking some time out over a cup of tea to listen to what the man has to say. This one should be of real interest to anyone into graphic design, typography and illustration, as well as Addict fans.
