Jinks Kunst - JORDAN - Traffic Sign

A dibon print of a Jinks Kunst sign hijacking. It is issued in 10 copies, numbered and hand-signed.

Jinks Kunst is a Franco-Swiss urban artist born in 1976. He lives and works in Nantes.

His adolescence was marked by hip-hop culture and skate culture. Magazines, fanzines, and album covers lead him to discover graffiti and the illustrations of artists such as Lazoo or Mode 2.

He first tries graffiti lettering, then in 2006 he turns to stencils. It is a true revelation and a ravenous passion that never leaves him.

These works are all handmade. Thus, armed with a craft knife, he meticulously carves life-size works for hours.

In January 2008, he began to appropriate Nantes’ road signs, then the rest of the world. Intervening in the streets of the globe is a necessity for Jinks Kunst. His creations are visible in more than 30 countries.
