To be honest, I was quite reluctant to participate in the World Guiness record for the biggest graffiti artwork that just happened in Dubai.
I checked it out and to see some friends in action, but then I changed my mind. The vibe there was sick, graffiti artists from everywhere painting the same long ass thing, including Blade or Futura 2000 among other legends.
There was free paint and a lot of spaces to fill up, temptation was too big so I asked my friend Zmogk for a collaboration since our last one came out quite good. He was finishing that epic mural in the 8th photo along with Bandi (2nd photo) and Loodz.
When he finished we did that Aladdin lamp artwork together that you can see in photos 5, 6 and 7.
Next day I went to take pictures and the organization asked me to do another piece, there were still some gaps to fill up so I came up with those 7 faces, reflecting the 7 Emirates (All the artworks must be related with the UAE or their 43rd National day). So at the end yes, I was part of the biggest longest graffitiest thing in the World or whatever they call it.

A visual dialogue between humans and nature in a wall where moss, grass, trees and plants are part of the artwork itself.

Some pics of the artworks that we did during this past week in Geneva for the Postgraffiti and Abstract show by Taxi Collectif.
My contribution for this show in an old reconverted foundry, apart of the outdoor wall with Zmogk, was this indoor mural of a man offering a gift facing a dyptich canvas of a sitting woman.
Great to meet all the crew in Geneva, good times!
Thanks to Bandi and the Taxi Collectif.
First days in Geneva, Switzerland.
Working on an indoor mural, a dyptich on canvas and a nice outdoor mural with Zmogk as part of this cool mini-residency.
Hyped to be part of this independent project in Geneve (CH) these next days, where we will take over a space from top to bottom during a mini-residency, including an artshow at the end of it.
I have no idea what the outcome will be, but sounds good.
Photos soon.
