We sat down with Travis...

What drives you to create art and experiences?

The general act of creating and the journey you go on completing an art piece, would be a main driving force of why I create. Getting lost during the creation process and figuring things out along the way is really what I love. I feel like my best work tends to be created spontaneously and in the moment. Being able to offer a glimpse of that feeling through my art and immersive experiences is something I strive to do with every thing I create.

How has your style evolved over time?

I always want to constantly be learning and evolving as an artist. I first began with photography, to painting, to murals, to sculpture, and now to clothing. The goal is to be able to transfer a signature style across all mediums and that is one thing that I am looking forward to most through my collaboration with DeadSoxy.

Share the inspiration behind this collab.

Fashion and clothing has always been something I wanted to get into. With the timing of me launching my own clothing line, it only made sense to do a collaboration with another Dallas based clothing company. DeadSoxy takes a very hands-on approach and puts emphasis on the details, which as an artist I can appreciate. Excited to contribute my style to what DeadSoxy already does well.
