← A graffiti tradition.<br />
Nothing hides an identity<br />
from the paparazzi<br />
like a <strong>Montana</strong> BLACK<br />

Where does graffiti fit into your life at the moment? Are<br />
you a graffiti writer doing other things to survive, are<br />
you a designer with a graffiti habit, or is it completely<br />
different for you? What drives you to get up and get<br />
going each day?<br />
LAIA<br />
Right now graffiti fits everywhere in my life. It’s my<br />
hobby, my passion, and it’s also my job, I don’t work<br />
exclusively just painting, but I do work doing 100%<br />
graffiti-related things. Designs for brands, collaborations,<br />
murals, and whatever comes my way. Every day is<br />
a new adventure, and every project is different. I also<br />
have a small online store. I can say that I have become a<br />
workaholic now that I like what I do, and that is an<br />
incredible motivation to get up every day and continue<br />
doing what I like the most. When I started painting, I<br />
would never have thought that this could be happening,<br />
it’s wonderful.<br />

Tell us a little about where LAIA is at right now.<br />
LAIA<br />
At the moment I find myself living between Valencia and<br />
Barcelona, which was my hometown. Two years ago I<br />
decided to move to Valencia in search of peace and calm<br />
to be able to work while listening to the birds. This was<br />
impossible in Barcelona. There, I lived in the center of the<br />
city and worked in the city center. So, I never really left<br />
the “stress zone”. I needed the calm that Valencia has to<br />
offer, which is a big city but at the same time a lot more<br />
peaceful. Now I miss Barcelona. It’s a strange love/hate<br />
thing. When I need movement, hustle, and bustle, I go to<br />
Barcelona. And for the rest, I stay in Valencia.<br />

← No undercoating<br />
needed. One of the<br />
reasons why LAIA<br />
turns to the <strong>Montana</strong><br />
BLACK 1030 Yellow to<br />
rock the spot.<br />

If you had to choose one of the two cities permanently,<br />
which would it be?<br />
LAIA<br />
If I had to stay permanently in one of them, I would stay<br />
in Barcelona.<br />
