FIRE AT WILL: ANGEL GRACE

  • Name: Angel Grace.
  • Crew: SACRED LETTERING & Born to Script Krew.
  • City-country: Originally from Cabo Frio, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I’ve lived in London for 17 years.
  • Active since: I’ve been tattooing for over 18 years now, specialising in lettering and the dark lettering tattoo. I am currently working at Sacred Gold Tattoo in London, Kings Cross.
  • First piece: My first wall I painted in London was in August 2020 in Stockwell, South East London and I was lucky to meet my partner in graffiti, Nerks who introduced me to that spot, and Chips from Wild Style café, which is the bestplace in London to get spray cans from, and is a great place to meet other graffiti artists too.
  • Favorite piece: I painted in Allen Gardens, Brick Lane, London, which is my favourite spot. I tried out a new colour scheme and letter style and was painting with some great people. In 2020 I attended the London mural Festival, which was such an amazing day to mix with different artists and see the amazing work being done out there. This year I’ve been invited to the London Tattoo Convention, in September and Sacred Lettering also has been invited, which will be a first time a graffiti and tattoo crew has attended, so I’m very excited and super proud. I’ve also been invited to the Rome Tattoo convention, in addition to the New York Tattoo convention in October.
  • Style:   I am heavily influenced by the ‘dark lettering’ style, mixed in with some of the Gothic traditions, which I have developed into my own unique style; however, it’s always evolving as I grow.
  • Partners in crime: Very grateful  to have Nerks, Nerok , Spyar, Dripper, my girl, Catmichogato.
  • Favorite cap: Blue Dot soft wide cap.

The Silence of the Street Art Community is Disappointing

Image
As we are witnessing a genocide unfolding before our eyes in Gaza, hundreds of thousands of people around the world have come together to march and protest in solidarity with the Palestinians and demand a ceasefire. However, I can’t help but feel disappointment with the street art community that is, for the most part, silent, a community that “supposedly” supports underserved communities and gives a voice to the voiceless. Seasonal in Ruins by Escif The contrast between the vocal condemnation of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine by artists who advocate for peace and justice and their relative silence on the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians is indeed striking. While many artists have used their platforms to raise their voices against one form of conflict, it raises questions about the consistency of their advocacy. The situation in Palestine demands a similar commitment to the principles of justice, human rights, and empathy for those affected by violence and oppression. It underscores th

13 DEADLY SCARY GRAFFITI ARTISTS TO CONSUME BEFORE YOU DIE

Image
You don’t have long left to live on this planet, but there is plenty of time left to suffer at the hands of these artists whose dedication to torturing walls and trains knows no bounds. Whether it be through lethal lettering, killer characters or awful abstraction, these unhinged beings live amongst us, living discreet existences during the day before unleashing their evil imaginations by night.

 Extreme warning: the contents of list should only be consumed by human beings with extreme tolerance to disturbing graffiti styles. Tera There seems to be something in the water in Italy that produces artists keen on bizarre textures, organic ornamentation and fungal features. Tera works interact with the abandoned spaces she finds with discomforting results. Kool Func 88 This Frenchman gets his name from Fun Crime, and is a member of the dangerous crews GT and UB. His graffiti is 100 % twisted, evidenced by the names he gives to his pieces: “Leftover Potato”, “Weirdies” and “Corrod

OKUDA: A LIFE PAINTING FOR FREEDOM AND DIVERSITY

Image
This month at Montana Colors we’ve celebrated #mtnwokemonth: a series of publications and articles on MTN World and on social media highlighting the role of graffiti, street art, muralism and exhibitions in promoting social causes. We can think of no-one better to cap off the month than Okuda San Miguel , a world-famous Spanish artist who makes no secret of the role of his art in the promotion of freedom of collectives of all kinds. MTN World caught up with him during the production of a huge new collaboration in Valencia with Sixe Paredes to talk about social causes in art, the effect of travelling on the environment and his support for the LGBTQI+ community. Are there any artists that you think have an interesting social message? I love Icy and Sot , I think their work is incredible. Besides, I know their backstory: they escaped from Iran because they were going to be imprisoned just for their art, and they have political asylum in the United States. What they communicate in t
