Synopsis
I started documenting graffiti and street mural artists in Denver in 2016. That same year, I met Casey Kawaguchi painting at CRUSH Walls, an annual street art festival in Denver. We had both just moved to Colorado and were beginning to establish ourselves creatively. We've been collaborating on video projects ever since. The Mastery series offers a glimpse into Casey’s philosophy of life, creativity and the battle to maintain harmony as an artist. |

Synopsis
"A man cannot understand the art he is studying if he only looks for the end result without taking the time to delve deeply into the reasoning of the study." ― Miyamoto Musashi (famous Japanese swordsman) "Mastery," dives deep into the philosophy of artist Casey Kawaguchi. Known mostly for his street art and Japanese aesthetic; this short portrait film explores the mind, soul, and influence of his art. A true collaboration between artist and filmmaker. |
