Living Proof Magazine Issue #7: Othelo Gervacio Feature

What is your favorite horror movie and why?

The Exorcist. The first time I saw it (as a young lad) I pretty much shit my pants. I don’t think any other horror movie has made me shit the same since.

Have you ever shit your pants? Tell the truth. And tell us the story.

I’ve actually never fully shit my pants, but I will tell you that I have sharted while driving, and that SUCKED.

What was your worst police experience?

I was always pretty good at evading the cops—except this one time when I was drunk and pissing in the street. A friend warned me that the cops saw me; so I walked into a restaurant and sat down with a random table of people to try and play it off. Of course, they came in and singled me out. They brought me out into the rain and made me wait forever after I gave them a metro card when they asked for my ID. Eventually they let me go with a handful of soggy tickets.

What advice/words of wisdom can you give young artists moving to New York to pursue their art career?

Pay your dues and make cool shit.
