ARTIST BIO
Mars is one of Johannesburg's most prolific graffiti artists,his unmistakable art can be seen across the city in various forms,on the sides of buildings, motorpasses,and abandoned lots. Mars' work has a subtle innocence about it. His light hearted,mischievous style comes from wanting to make art that offers viewers a reprieve from the everyday grind.
Animated colours are woven together with bold crisp lines, a result of his strong graffiti influence. His unique identifiable style, refined on the streets, adapts intuitively to the works on canvas in this show.
