DVNO is of course the voice of the title of Justice of the same name and the first part of their concert tour this year. But this musician, producer, composer, or even DJ, has also always been passionate about skateboarding. A passion he shares with his childhood neighbours, DJ Pone with whom he founded the Scenario Rock group, or Benjamin Deberdt with whom he collaborates on the magazine Live.
American photographer, Patrick O'Dell reveals his documentary style during his years as a young skateboarder emigrated to San Francisco. He ends up working for Thrasher magazine, before moving to New York and Vice magazine for which he developed the program the most watched on VBS.TV, epicly Later'd, who painted the portrait of iconic skateboarders (this summer : Eric Koston). In addition, Patrick has made clips for Morrissey, Panda Bear, No Age, Wavves, or Appaloosa, but he also participated in the retrospective "Spike Jonze: 80 years" organized at MOMA.
