Ricky Powell Interviews SSUR from Dithers

As artist and founder of the SSUR clothing line (and its sub-brands Rebel Ape and Caviar Cartel), Russ Karablin has become a prominent figure in both the street wear and contemporary art scenes. The strong influence of New York City, from its hip hop culture to its street art, is prevalent within SSURs imagery. Equally as influential to his designs is Russ Karablin’s Russian background. He combines pop culture memorabilia with war propaganda, meshing past and present iconography, to create work concerned with sex, politics, and protest.
