Talented Milan - Artist Filip Adrian Dziegielewski
If you live in Milan chances are that you’ve already met Filip Adrian Dziegielewski.

Whilst collaborating with Swide for The Matt Silk Collection SS12 video, Luca Finotti gave us the chance to get him in front of the camera for an exclusive interview.
