“I started off tagging stuff - I'm not meant to be having tea and biscuits with t…” — Ben Eine

I've a lot of respect for what people are doing here in Manchester, to promote the city's creativity and Aviva Investors Manchester Art Fair has played a big role in that. I'm glad to bring my work to the North West.

All too often, when people think about art in the U.K., they think London. There's some really great work being produced outside of the capital city and I think it is important to stop and acknowledge that.

Painting on the ground was a cool challenge because you can't just stand back and see what you're doing.

I'm a long way from being a Damien Hirst.
