香港街頭藝術團隊 Start From Zero ，成軍超過 10 年，由當初的街頭 Stencil art 到同名服飾品牌，再到近年專注的木藝，共通點都是「由零開始」，以及作品總帶有各種絲印的圖案、標誌式的Stencil Art風味，延續團隊的街頭創作理念。

 

Start From Zero 近年陸續獲邀與不同單位合作，當中型格 cafe Elephant Grounds的木藝內裝就是由他們負責，而VANS更是長期合作伙伴，至於海外的合作就有台北新晉 cafe 共樂。除此之外，主腦 Dom 亦努力推廣木藝創作，於是舉辦不同類型的 Workshop，由工具、家品等都非常生活化，加上造法簡單，很適合木藝初學者。

 

稍後 Start From Zero 將會陸續舉辦不同配搭的本藝 Workshop，有興趣的朋友請點擊這裡關注。

導師簡介九年前成立的一個街頭藝術組織，由最初貼紙開始，之後伸引到stencil、wheatpaste及其他煤介，以街頭文化的型式將心中的座右銘 Start From Zero 宣揚開去！Start From Zero 有兩個含意，第一是想告訴街上的朋友自己由零開始做街頭藝術，亦希望影響到街上看到這句話的人跟我們一樣開始做各類型的街頭藝術，開始不一樣的人生！第二是 Start From Zero 是激勵語句！我們希望以街頭藝術傳播這句口號，提醒每一個人當情緒低落、覺得失落、失去目標時可以由零開始，世上沒有徹低的失敗，也沒有甚麼大不了，Start From Zero！

 

四年前開始成立 Start From Zero 的服裝支線，從Tee恤、背包、帽子及各種飾物作煤體繼續宣揚由零開始訊息，在香港、中國、台灣及澳門均有發售!

Host Profile“Start From Zero” was founded by a Hong Kong local street artist - Dom. START stands for STreet ART, STencil ART and STicker ART. The are two meanings of “Start From Zero”:

 

1. He started performing street art from nothing, i.e. “zero; I hope that when someone see my stickers, they will be like me, start doing street art from “zero”.2. It can be a slogan for encouraging people when they are unhappy, down or miserable. He also wants people to remind their friends of this slogan when the same things happen.

 

Apart from using stickers, “Start From Zero” also uses wheat pastes, spraying on stencils with different characters and illustrations to convey his message on streets. “Street From Zero” does solo street art as well as collaboration street art. He is an active member of a Hong Kong Street Art crew - ST/ART.Besides performing street art, “Street From Zero” will release various products, T-shirts, badges, caps and other accessories. These are the additional media for “Start From Zero” to more widely spread his message to everyone.
