The thing about FAILE is that they are always trying to take you somewhere you feel like you have been but may have dreamt. Since coming into street art at the pivotal moment of the early 2000s and their various explorations into installation, muralism, nightlife and fine art, you recongnize the world of FAILE even though it's something completely fresh and new. I think of it as the imaginary world you always wanted but could never quite find.
And at the moment they open their new solo show, Don't Stop, at CONTROL Gallery in Los Angeles, Radio Juxtapoz wanted to talk to the duo that is FAILE and discuss what it is they saw and see now as pioneers of street work but also transformative artists who think of place and space and experience in everything they do.
