Haroshi makes his art by recycling pieces of old skateboards. Still an avid skater, its only natural that he began to make are pieces by using old defunct skateboards. To Haroshi, his art pieces are equal to his skateboards, and that means they are his life itself. They're his communication tool with both himself, and the outside world.

The traveling art show “Smile On Your Brother” was conceived by Mike Giles and Annie Lam and co-curated by Bob Kronbauer of Club Mumble. It serves as a fundraiser for the 1.6 million kids living in poverty in Canada. The 50 custom decks, which are to be auctioned off, will raise money into providing 100 skateboards to kids, in hope of giving them some positive encouragement.
