Flea and Thomas Houseago’s Sculptures

There’s an interesting piece on Flea’s friendship with sculptor Thomas Houseago on The Hollywood Reporter website:flea-sculpture-thomas-houseago

Apparently Flea is a great fan of artist, Thomas Houseago’s pieces and would like to own one but  he doesn’t have a place to put one as many of the pieces are so big. After tracking the artist down, Flea and Houseago became friends

At their first meeting, the two talked for three hours. “I was like, ‘Oh, he’s a brother.’ With Flea, it was just straight up,” recalls Houseago…

And it turns out that the artist brought one of Flea’s former homes, The Castle in Los Feliz, without realising it;

“It was pure chance. I had no idea it used to be Flea’s house,”

Houseago donated a piece to the recent Silverlake Conservatory of Music benefit evening auction. It was a mask sculpture and was bought by Anthony Kiedis.

About Squitherwitch

I've been a RHCP fan ever since I heard Under The Bridge way back in the mists of time. I brought BSSM and then their other albums but RHCP were just another band I listened to (I was a massive GNR fan at the time) but that changed once I heard Californication! I've been involved with the online RHCP scene since 2006, getting more heavily involved as time passed, and eventually the time was right to set up my own website dedicated to the band and thus, TheChiliSource was born. Since then I've also set up AnthonyKiedis.net along with various Twitter, Facebook & Tumblr pages connected to my websites and RHCP.
