AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Helio Bray (B. Helio Ferreira, Lisbon, 1984), is an artist in constant transformation, and he had never seen the now well-known "graffiti" before painting for his first time on a wall. The reason lies in the fact that he had always lived far away from major urban areas and all their inherent art at the time.
In 2008, HelioBray developed an artistic proposal for an urban store. Vans, DC Shoes, Adidas Originals, Quiksilver, Roxy, Vonzipper and a few other brands joined him in this project.
He passed through several stages and styles within the graffiti, mixing over the years several techniques. He grew up as a contemporary artist to the present day, creating always new styles and mixing colors as he is known for. Exhibitions worldwide, murals, and events have been the path of the artist.
In Japan, there is an expression called “Kotodama” (言霊), which can be translated as the “Spirit of the Word” or the “Power of the Word.” Many Japanese believe that words have life and that many of them have the ability to bring fortune or disgrace when spoken. For this reason, they are usually cautious when talking and issuing statements.
