Statement
Being an artist living in a city like London, my art is a verge of energies as London is. The consequent approach to graffiti art is the mirror of a multi- layered landscape of the urban environment. My paintings express the hyper textural reality where everybody joins the thousands of differences and that is what makes London so beautiful. Each subject of my work represents a card of an infinite, panoramic puzzle of the reality. My imagination is the tool to decode that. I use screen printing techniques because of its interaction between manual and mechanical process.
