Vhils aka Alexandre Farto



Alexandre Farto aka Vhils grew up in the Lisbon area and we’re talking about Portugal. And if that only means to you nice weather, beaches and Cristiano Ronaldo, then you’re missing a great deal of it. Making street art since he was 13, Vhils, now 22 years old, has a whole lot of progress in his belt.

From illustration to graphic design and combining old fashioned drawing with computer skills, Vhils work is evolving everyday and making his mark in street all over the place.

We know Vhils still has a lot of work and creativity growing along with him. But, as we can see, some people are just born with a gift and, in somes case, a can of spray n their hands.

ESCIF





Born and raised in Valencia, ESCIF grew up in a town that combined the looks of big city by the sea with the coolness that allowed artists to express themselves in the streets. That probably had an impact in ESCIF's way of life, that sparkled also by his interest in traveling made his street art grow in Valencia but spread around the world.

ESCIF sees his own art as a way of exploring his views and creating an unique speech, trying to free himself from the clichés of street art. We might not know the fully extent of his language, but we fully apreciate the way he's talking to us.

ARMOgedon2057




Get somo typographic elements and begin to explore the strutures behind grafitti. Explore them further together and get some California sunshine on the background. By doing so, you’ll probably get a glimpse of what’s the deal with ARMOgedon2057. Walking around the line between grafitti and typography and blurring it to new forms of communication, ARMO surprises us and make us wonder where he’s going.

The Alta Modern Grafitti pioneer is on a journey and we’re riding along with pleasure.

Christian Guemy aka C215



C215 once called himself a streetart junkie, surrounded by stencil and grafitti everyday. If that’s so, no need for rehab Christian, you’re just fine as it is. C215’s college education in History of Art didn’t keep him captive of art in its classic forms, but stirred the fire within him to travel around the world making his own art.

His urban pieces have left his mark in many countries and also in many hearts, making his work a definitive chapter in the History of Urban Art, if ever that discipline may come to exist.
