KIDULT Pop-up show in Tokyo, by moron on Jan 29, 2018 16:48:46 GMT 1, This is from his about me page on his website.
" Luxury brands appropriate graffiti for publicity, thereby pushing me to react by vandalizing their stores with real graffiti. These brands are usurpers, and they are, in their enterprise of stealing our culture, helped by the institutions that rule our society.
The main concept that sets me against the brands and the governing institutions is the commercialization and the market value of graffiti. Following this logic, the brands are creating an abyssal gap between the value of graffiti and the price that they sell it for, making profits out of something they do not and will never own. The hijacking happens in both senses; I take over the brandโs marketing strategies in order to pirate their image. I use the same techniques they do to advertise for my cause, to be seen and heard by all."
The rest of it comes across as pretentious crap.
He comes across similar to the way a criminal or abuser blames the victim for their actions. I'm no fan of fashion and hoi poloi but fashion brands are not usurpers. Many came from nothing and created a brand, whilst others had rich parents and sometimes Posh too.
It looks to me like Kidult has entirely missed the whole point that he says he is making.
There again as far as I can see he is doing it all for attention inorder to make money.
He is as big a greedy capitalist Brand in his head anyway as the ones he says he is against.

KIDULT Pop-up show in Tokyo, by Lroy on Mar 8, 2018 23:19:20 GMT 1, Death note by Kidult. Sold Out in 1min...
Not really in minutes. Easy to catch for bots and Kidult mates, site even did not crashed., But it was weird ! As I said on social media , on Kidult pages : ( and in the context of Kidult quotes - with a loud voice ) : ยซย those who had to get one, got one ยป : Fashioned Japanese, people of all the world that like Supreme ( and that Kidult condamns anyway ) , got one. More than one hundred tees ( there is already one on eBay for 820 quids - I alerted K. but he does not care - a mate maybe. In fact, it was very weird to order this tee : the order will pass via PayPal, so why to ask people before to log in , to enter their full adress on the shop ?! knowing that PayPal will already ask for the adress ?! Weird innit ? Supreme method ? Anyway I know guys friends of the man who obviously got a tee without any problems ..
Just I reckon that ( even if the man makes advertisement to the hyped brands - jc de Castelbajac liked his post, Agnes B does not condamn Kidult , etc etc ) , Kidult ( team ? ) has balls to tag with his extinguisher walls of the capital and great Shops from Paris : if the police catch him, justice, brands and municipality wonโt make any gifts to him and the bill will be very very high I guess ! ( it is not walls in the suburbs , but historic ones in the center of Paris chic areas). But maybe Kidult is really powerful ( rich and politic consortium ? ) and has a lot of money ! It should be funny if brands paid him to tag their walls !

The picture of the edition number label shows 4 digits. So could be 1000 or more of these.

KIDULT Pop-up show in Tokyo, by pada1 on Jun 21, 2018 1:29:49 GMT 1, I donโt know why/where, but my memory tells me 500... i am probably wrong. I have seen the release done sharply on time (you can schedule release on bigcartel, so you canโt mess it!).

KIDULT Pop-up show in Tokyo, by coller on Jun 21, 2018 2:12:37 GMT 1, i kind of love the irony w/ this item, the matte black limited edition vandal fire extinguisher.
it actually increases the odds of getting arrested, since it makes the tool identifiable/traceable.
i guess most people will frame them and won't go around spraying walls with a signed/numbered piece of art.
looks nice!

I think it doesnโt change the odds to be caught at all. I mean walking around with this uncovered would always make you suspicious!

that said, maybe not a good idea to commit a crime with a tool that can be traced back to your bank account, and that has a buyer-specific number written on it that can identify the tool's owner.
basically the same logic behind why people buy burner phones lol
