Hungry Are We
There are times when we think that we are limited and that our capabilities are somehow few. The search for new challenges and the creation of scenarios that benefit us as human beings is what makes us different. The hunger to move forward and do different things than we are used to is what he portrayed on this wall. We are individuals of routines until the moment we decide and a different idea comes to us, that thought is what leads us to change our attitudes and be in constant change.
Artist bio:
Influenced by old local comics, graphic style from the 50s and Sci-Fi movies, at the age of 13 he begins to paint graffiti just for fun and as a hobby. Autodidactic and evolutionary, attracted by fine arts, Smithe has constantly reinvented his own style and over the past years has tried out with many themes on his work such as Existentialism, Individuality of the human being and the machine within. The defragmentation, common symbol on his work, is used as a vehicle to show the inside elements that power his characters and is shown as a surrealistic machine.
He is commonly known for his graffiti but he is also involved in other areas such as illustration, design, sculpture and music. He has exhibited in Japan, Germany, France, Belgium, United Kingdom, Spain, USA and Mexico.
