Description
Chris Do sits down with artist and designer Scott Clum to explore the evolution of snowboard and skate culture's visual language. In an era increasingly dominated by AI and push-button gratification, Clum champions the tactile, utilitarian process of making art and embracing the beauty of mistakes. Drawing from his 40-year career shaping brands like Sims and Morrow Snowboards, he unpacks the crucial difference between personal self-expression and commercial design. Creative professionals will discover why staying true to the manual process builds a more valuable creative perspective and get a glimpse into Clum’s upcoming print magazine, WALK.
