Painted at the urban art biennale Teenage Kicks, which takes place in Rennes every couple years since 2013. The ‘wall of fame’ was painted by 30 artists from all over the world, including Vents (UK), Bob59 (FRA), Sarme (CRO), Sawee (ESP), 123 Klan (CAN) and many others.
Muretz + Autops
Yesterdat was the opening of our joint show - Muretz and Autops - at Moosey Art Norwich.
Autops and Muretz both hail from Sao Paulo, Brazil and were originally brought together through a mutual love of graffiti. They quickly discovered that the natural flow of their encounters and sketching sessions, ideas and drawings came out in an unpretentious way, almost as if their characters were already alive and asking to be brought out of their minds into this world.
'Empty Inside' is presented as an analysis of the very nature of human behaviour. Autops black and white paintings illustrate scenarios which depict the internal world of our own psyche, analysing the ability to self relate and internalise thoughts. In contrast, Muretz' work presents an internal emptiness and how this manifests on the world around the subject. He explores not only how humans interact with their space, but are also sometimes a reflection of the environment they exist within too.
These prevailing dialogues are explored not only by the outlined thematic concept, but also as a wider aesthetic statement too, through the commutual progression of their complementary styles. Since those first paintings on the street together, to this summative collaborative exhibition, five years of drawing sessions have passed by and developed this pair as a creative powerhouse casting a lens of introspection back onto us all.

Lazy Sunday
Enjoying the afternoon with a couple spray cans.
Muretz + Voyder
Hanging out with Voyder in east London last month we painted a small spot by the train line.
The finished piece end to end.
Little subliminal message to the haters out there!
That’s it. Keep it simple and bold, folks! And see you next time.
Nou Colors Factory
Last week visiting the factory of our home town spray cans factory, making use of a few of their freshly developed cans.
The painting stays upfront in the entrance of the factory, very welcoming.
Belgium
Paid a visit to friends in Antwerp and spotted some nice places to paint.
An abandoned building just outside town was the first target by night...
The city is calm during later hours, which was an inviting scenario for more character bombing.
Not much happening in Belgium that day.
Bogotá
In a short visit to Bogotá I was able to paint this quick mural in the city.
Thanks for seeing this.
Around Town
Sunday around town we find a small community in the west side of Sao Paulo. Kids were playing around and interacting while we painted.
Abandono SP
With Akbo and Depor, in some abandoned warehouse in the heart of São Paulo.
Avenida Rebouças
Tons of grey… A mural that nobody asked for. Spray paint kindly provided by Nou Colors.
This is it. Almost.
