Biography

I’ve been active in graffiti since the early 1980s. Growing up in the suburbs of Stockholm, I spent much of my time drawing and experimenting with letters. Before choosing a pseudonym, my friends and I wrote our real first names—tagging simply because it was fun and visible. I also tagged inside Stockholm’s subway system, moving naturally from paper into public space.

A turning point came when my father gave me a hip-hop vinyl record. The graffiti on the back cover revealed a wider culture and visual language that resonated deeply. Influenced by early New York writers and the fast-moving Danish graffiti scene, I developed a strong foundation in letter structure, flow and color. My work remains centered on lettering, shaped by decades of painting and informed by experience in art direction and design. I continue to paint with letters first, staying true to graffiti’s original foundations.

Style

My style is rooted in classic graffiti lettering shaped by early New York writers and the fast-moving Danish scene of the 1980s. Letters remain the foundation. Structure, rhythm and color balance guide each piece, while playful elements add contrast. My work balances control and spontaneity, preserving the raw energy of graffiti refined through decades of painting.

Artwork

My studio works translate decades of graffiti experience onto canvas while preserving the integrity of classic writing. Each piece is built through layering, color interaction and structural balance, with letters at the core. Rooted in graffiti culture, my work follows the same approach I use on walls, exploring how lettering evolves when transferred into permanent formats.
