Club Papiros was well-established across Asia, and in the late 1980s, they opened a branch in Phuket, riding the wave of the island's burgeoning jet-set tourism. With its private beach, imported palm trees from further out in the Gulf, extravagant cigar culture, and overpriced drinks, it epitomized tropical high-end luxury at its finest.

This was the place to truly unwind in the familiar Papiros surroundings after a long day aboard the yacht. There was no room for backpackers or other tourist riffraff here. The watch vendor down on the right, peddling nearly authentic Pateks and Rolexes, was unceremoniously thrown out, of course.

Maximus Emrat Dørje(b. 2009) from Sarpsborg. Max lives in Sarpsborg and attends Grålum Ungdomskole. He frequents Soli Brug a lot and often draws inspiration from artists exhibiting there, especially perhaps from Pushwagner, Guttestreker, and Johan Reisang, but also from many travels around the world. He always carries his sketchbook with him. Maximus has created his own little universe centered around "Club Papiros," a fictional American club concept from the 1980s. Maximus works with pencil, pen, and ink, which then becomes digital prints (DGA), both in small and large formats. At the age of 14, he has already sold over 200 pieces, and he is determined to continue pursuing his art.
