COLORZ, has acquired his ´Lettres
de Noblesseª in the French urban art culture through assiduous practice

He became famous in Athens, where he became the first tagger to hit the walls of the metro. He gained instant notoriety.
Amsterdam, New York, Hong Kong and Jakarta will also have their walls sprayed with the artistís tags.
Originally these simple graffiti, his visual vocabulary evolving into elaborate compositions where the colour and treatment of the wall becomes more complex.
Nowadays, the artist devotes himself exclusively to his work.
His unique style makes him recognizable by his energy and vibrancy.
