Today, Boris Tellegen wakes up at 6 a.m. to the sound of his infant wanting to be fed. After daddy duty, Telegen becomes DELTA, a name he scribbled furiously on Amsterdam property, in his youth. “The fact that I’m not 20 or 25, personally, I don’t feel the urge to prove myself anymore as a writer,” he says, adding that letters continue to be the base of his creations, and is in his Amsterdam studio crafting monolithic art for his personal satisfaction and his client’s needs. Telegen’s passion rests in yesterday’s future, “I choose my name in the ‘80’s. I choose the name DELTA, because I thought it sounded cool and, at the time, Transformers were on television and rappers were called Captain Rock, Flash and the Ultramagnetic MCs,” he says, adding that his vinyl toy, Rader (the Rader toy is limited with 600 produced), is a tribute to yester-decade’s future.
You can find an interview of DELTA at FORMATMAG, and his work here.
