GRAFFITI AND STREET ART

These are a few pieces done in Los Angeles using both neon and fluorescent paint. Working on walls is really rewarding, as i get to travel and use my whole body to create large works of art. Each environment requires its own practice and challenges and painting different themes allows me to work with the space and use my imagination to transform the space. I really like seeing my works in large in the streets and in small businesses.

The pieces are a combination of my imaginative creatures as well as using nature and world wide myths to convey different narratives and compositions that work with each context of its given space. Many themes are inspired by ancient aliens, nature, myths and modern technology, I like to be able to incorporate all the things that fascinate me into each work and not paint two pieces the same.

Large walls have a way of challenging your skill and will test your body to its limits, you are one with the elements of nature and its city. Most of these pieces also glow in the black light.
