MOMO<\/strong><\/h3>\n

(San Francisco 1974)[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”bio”]Grown up in California, MOMO<\/strong> has lived a nomadic life for most of his adult life, spending years between a cave, a truck, and a tent, then six years in New York, and long stays in Europe and Latin America. He joined a graffiti crew while living in Spain in 1999. His outdoor life experience introduced him to large post-graffiti murals \u2014 the works he is best known for \u2014 enriched by the influence of Caribbean colors into more vivid hues. In 2006, he gained attention with \u201cA Tag the Width of Manhattan\u201d, an 8-mile-long paint line \u2014 from the East River to the Hudson River \u2014 which, viewed from the air, spells out his name: the largest tag in the world. Scale and experimentation are key words in MOMO\u2019s art; his abstract, optical color collages are designed on digital sketches and then realized with self-made tools. His aesthetics is dominated by geometry, seriality of the sign, and compositional rigor; his works reflect influences from digital culture, rave music, coding, and generative art \u2014 a rather unique legacy in the urban art scene. He has brought his work worldwide and received important recognition, including in museums.<\/p>\n

ZEDZ<\/strong><\/h3>\n

(Leiden 1971)[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”bio”]Dutch by birth, ZEDZ<\/strong> is one of the pioneers of writing and 3D writing in Europe. His first graffiti was done in Leiden, his hometown, on his 14th birthday. Graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Art Academy in Amsterdam in 1998, since then he has stood out for his research into form and design in urban space, developing timeless works that fuse typography and architecture. ZEDZ designs like a designer and has the craftsmanship of an artisan; his works combine graffiti culture with a higher visual language, spray technique with vector design technology, restoring spatiality to a visual code \u2014 the letter \u2014 born on a two-dimensional plane. ZEDZ\u2019s production is eclectic and includes canvases, screen prints, prints, wooden sculptures, die-cut paper sculptures, and large temporary installations in urban spaces.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]zedz.org\"\"<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1619795507093{margin-top: 5em !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”margine”]ZEDZ<\/strong>

2501 \/ FRANCESCO IGORY DEIANA<\/strong><\/h3>\n

(Milan 1981) \/ (Milan 1984)[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”bio”]Jacopo Ceccarelli, aka 2501<\/strong>, began writing graffiti at the age of 14 under the monikers Never and Robot Inc. At 20, he moved to S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil, where he taught painting to children living in favelas. It was there that he came into contact with South American aesthetics and refined his approach to painting.
Returning to Milan in 2004, he worked in web design and motion graphics, while also studying film editing.
Since 2007, under the name 2501, he has developed a conscious and dynamic artistic career that blends mural painting, canvas work, sculpture, and video art in a process of continuous experimentation.
His artistic identity hovers between mystical and spiritual visions\u2014rooted in Eastern philosophies\u2014and a more instinctive, emotional dimension. His art combines performative gesture and chance, maintaining a visual balance between formal clarity and chaos, while generating immersive experiences, pathways, and imaginary figures.
His works\u2014often characterized by flowing lines, organic shapes, and rhythmic movements, predominantly in black and white\u2014freely explore the tension between fullness and emptiness. Occasionally, a darker aesthetic emerges, particularly in series like La Macchina.
\n
His site-specific and socially engaged work is in constant dialogue with urban topography and has gained recognition at numerous public art festivals, including O.BRA, Living Walls, ALTrove, Art United Us, Artmossphere Biennale, Walk & Talk, Wabash Arts Corridor, Outdoor, Mural, Traffic Design, and Painted the Desert Project.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Born in Milan, Francesco Igory Deiana lives and works in San Francisco. He started with graffiti as a youth, but his artistic maturation occurred in California, also influenced by collaborations with Clare Rojas and Barry McGee. His work is a sophisticated elaboration of abstract images and digital distortions, with chromatic and aesthetic juxtapositions that make his work very iconic. He creates his works using graphite, ballpoint pen, spray can, oil pastels, and bleach on supports such as cardboard, plaster, and found objects. Igory Deiana\u2019s creative research is constant, repetitive, and obsessive, where the process almost outweighs the result. His work explores humanity\u2019s growing dependence on technology.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\"\"https:\/\/www.2501.org.uk\/<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\"\"francescoigorydeiana.com<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1619795519755{margin-top: 5em !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text el_class=”margine”]EL SEED<\/strong>

EL SEED<\/strong><\/h3>\n

(Paris 1981)[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”bio”]An exceptional ambassador of contemporary islamic art, EL SEED combines the immediacy of Western graffiti with the poetry and sinuosity of Arabic calligraphy. He paints letters, color, and movement. He consciously uses his art as a tool of political expression. His poetic vision builds bridges between cultures worldwide where he has spread his message. Born in Le Chesnay, a Paris suburb, to Tunisian parents, EL SEED created his first large mural one year after the Tunisian revolution began, in the city of Kairouan. His work is present worldwide and particularly appreciated in the United Arab Emirates: in Abu Dhabi, he painted the Municipality Building and created a large sculpture in Dubai\u2019s Nad Al Sheba district. In 2013, he collaborated with Louis Vuitton on fashion and accessory creations.
His important large-scale site-specific works include the Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris; the favelas of Rio de Janeiro; the DMZ between North and South Korea; the slums of Cape Town; and the heart of Cairo\u2019s garbage collectors\u2019 neighborhood. In 2017, he won the Sharjah UNESCO Award for Arab Culture.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]elseed\"\"<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]\"\"elseed-art.com<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md”][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id=”cs-11″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
