She did tape art directly on the streets of Berlin. I fell in love with her and with the aesthetics of this art form. To be honest, it was one of those rare and magical encounters in life where you meet someone very special and decide to be together and create together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At that time, the term &#8220;tape art&#8221; didn&#8217;t exist\u2026. There was only one graffiti artist called BUFF DISS who lived in Berlin at that time who started using tape instead of spray paint. He was our inspiration. It took about 10 years for this new art form to establish itself, although it has to be said that tape art is still a niche art form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"imagegallery\" href=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1.jpg\" rel=\"imagegallery10769\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-1024x512.jpg\" alt=\"A tape art installation on a staircase in Berlin, Germany.\" class=\"wp-image-10786\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-1536x768.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-1088x544.jpg 1088w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-177x89.jpg 177w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-275x138.jpg 275w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-416x208.jpg 416w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1-257x129.jpg 257w, https:\/\/www.protapes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/A-tape-art-installation-on-a-staircase-in-Berlin-Germany-1.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A tape art installation on a staircase in Berlin, Germany.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How did the TAPE OVER artist collective get started?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>LaMia and I started TAPE OVER as an artist duo making tape art in Berlin&#8217;s subcultural techno clubs.

What inspired you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For UpFest 2022 &#8211; Europe&#8217;s biggest street art festival &#8211; I created a tape art portrait of Andy Warhol. He and Jean-Michel Basquiat are two of my artistic idols. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Andy Warhol is so inspiring to me because he was both a designer and an artist. He was the first to put everyday objects into an artistic context. Also, his conceptual way of thinking and creating is something quite unique. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Watch the UpFest 2022 recap:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tape Over at UpFest 2022 - Sponsored by Pro Tapes\u00ae\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/815035944?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In my eyes, Andy Warhol was a pioneer because he tried to bring street art or urban art into the rather conservative art world.
