Imagine you’re a young artist staring at an empty canvas. It happens to the best of us from time to time, either too much to say at once or a mind as blank as the surface will leave you in search of inspiration. Chicago-based street artist Kristoffer Mac aka Koca Monarchy walked his Stash Air Force 1s over to a museum where the tortured quest continued in vein until he found an unexpected treasure sitting on a bench in pristine condition. From the Air Jordan VIII ‘Aqua’ he ‘found’ Kris created his latest piece, a close-up of the Eight’s unmistakable midsole streaking along with a re-branded ankle strap, and you can see the video of how it came to be when you click on the jump below.
