So hyped to see my boy Arta Afshar shredding my Gazelle sculpture at Al Ghurair in Deira, Dubai.
Las Olas is a commission for The Surf Café, a new meeting point in Dubai for the surf heads. Fresh fish, good coffee and friendly faces expected.
Give it a try, you’ll like it: Jumeirah Beach Road right on the side of the Surf House, close to Burj Al Arab (Sunset Beach).

Proud to be part of the Art4sight auction for my 3rd year this 2015.
These guys turn all the incomes from the sales into glasses, eye surgeries and blindness treatment in general for those who live in darkness in remote and conflictive areas.
This is my donation for the 2015 auction, Spraypaint on canvas, 120x90cm.
Happy to see one of my latest walls done in Dubai featured in GraffitiArt mag :)
Astral projection (or astral travel) is an interpretation of an out-of-body experience (OBE) that assumes the existence of an “astral body” separate from the physical body and capable of travelling outside it. Astral projection or travel denotes the astral body leaving the physical body to travel in an astral plane. The idea of astral travel is rooted in common worldwide religious accounts of the afterlife in which the consciousness’ or soul’s journey or “ascent” is described in such terms as “an… out-of body experience, wherein the spiritual traveller leaves the physical body and travels in his/her subtle body (or dreambody or astral body) into ‘higher’ realms.”
It is frequently reported in association with dreams, and forms of meditation.

My friend Ramy, from INGcreatives is a stubborn guy.
He sees this wall everyday from his apartment and from his office too.
Ramy’s been trying to get this wall painted by an artist for over a year, and he didn’t stop until he finally got it.
I’m happy that I was the artist he had in mind once he got the permission, I’ve seen no walls like this before in Dubai, it was quite a exciting project.
We wanted to keep it all independent since the beginning, no branding, no events, no posing. Just art in a wall, but we needed some support.
INGcreatives managed to get it all organized and they even created a casual venue where people stopped by to see the progress of the wall, to chill with us and get some information about the project. Concordia, the company who runs the area, provided a cherry picker and some dirhams to buy the paint and Sam gave us a good price on the spray paint.
Everybody did their best to support this project expecting nothing in exchange. Thank you all. And then I just provided my work.
So yeah, this has been a project free of charge, just for the community. I hope you enjoy it.

Different photos that I took of Dubai at night during the past month.
The guys at FN Designs, from Dubai, had this original idea: They teamed up with a boxing club and artists to create this customized boxing bags and make a nice show with all of them. I was part of the group show, including mostly local and UAE based artists.
I recently painted a 12mt mural in this Japanese restaurant in Dubai called Atisuto.
The artwork is based in the 5 elements used in the Japanese culture: Earth, Water, Fire, Wind and Sky.
Happy new year from Mars! (aka Hatta desert, UAE)
