Jamie Hewlett has confirmed to DIY that is he involved in the return of Gorillaz.

Damon Albarn had suggested he was considering bringing the hyper-real band back without the artistic help of Hewlett during an interview with Shortlist way back in May 2012, but much more recently Hewlett used his Instagram account to confirm his involvement, and he’s now gone a little further during this interview.

“I’m working on it at the moment, and it’s going very well, he said. “I’m very excited. I don’t want to say too much about it, but I’m at that phase of experimentation. What I try not to do when I’m working in this creative period, the cooking of the mess, is go to other peoples’ exhibitions and look at other peoples’ work.”

“I close my eyes, and don’t want to know what anyone else is doing. Doing that has kind of ruined the creative process for me in the past, and I don’t want to let that happen again.”
