He began in the street, between skateboarding and graffiti, painting whatever surface was available. From figuration he moved to abstraction, and the plane of the painting gained thickness: his works are now reliefs built from salvaged, reused material.
The grid and the constructive rigour place him in a neo-concrete genealogy; the artisanal effort — each work made by him from start to finish — takes him out of it.
