SIXTEN (Carl Nyman)
In his words, Sixten is “a car salesman in the most polluted city on earth, trying to counterweigh my karma collapse by helping Bright Side”
Sixten (a.k.a Carl Nyman) is a creator. Amongst his varied creations, he has co-authored a book STENCIL GRAFFITI CAPITAL: MELBOURNE, published a series of poems, ran around beautifying cities with graffiti, inspired and created album covers, clothing, bags, video games, and more with his artwork. I met him in 2006 when he was doing stencil graffiti and when I was selling my soul on a daily basis. From Shanghai to Los Angeles, New York, Singapore, he headlined major events I produced and we had the best of times.
When I decided to create a logo for Bright Side Sixten was the first person that came to mind who could capture what I needed with something whimsical, unique, and non-cheesy. He nailed it on the first draft proposal – unheard of! While we don’t meet very often I hope in the future of Bright Side, we will be able to bring international artists and talents like him to Taiwan!
