EP030 - Mason Rose - World-Renowned Artist + B-Boy
Mason Rose stands as a beacon of creativity and innovation in the world of art, film and photography. With each click of their camera, he breathes life into his creations, transcending the boundaries of convention and challenging the very essence of artistic expression.
Mason's ability to capture the ethereal beauty in the mundane, to unveil hidden stories through the lens, is nothing short of mesmerising. His art becomes a portal to new dimensions, inviting us to reimagine our perceptions and embrace the uncharted realms of imagination.
Mason Rose doesn't merely create art; he weave dreams, ignites inspiration, and reminds us that within every individual lies the potential to shape the world with clear vision and innovation.
A former pro-bodyboarder-turned-B-boy-turned-filmmaker-turned-photographer - Mason goes right when the crowd is moving left. Born and raised in Port Macquarie with his bestie, Nabil (Kanye West, Bon Iver, Frank Ocean, Arctic Monkeys...), he knew he had to believe in himself in order to escape the dreaded quicksand of living in a small-coastal town. So, he set his sights on all corners of the Earth - New York, Berlin, and now calls Hawaii home.
Working with global brands such as Red Bull and Monster, and providing images for the global superstar, The Weekend, Mason's journey is a testament to the boundless possibilities of the human spirit, and his work is an enduring reminder that truth and art know no limits.
