INTERVIEW WITH VANDL:

Journalist:
Why paint a single word per canvas?

VANDL:
Because one word is enough. Everything else is noise.

Journalist:
Why the splatters?

VANDL:
Because nothing stays intact. Everything moves. The word stays.

Journalist:
How do you choose your words?

VANDL:
They strike me like a punch. If they stay with me, then they deserve to be painted.

Journalist:
Your art has moved from the streets to collectors’ walls. What changes?

VANDL:
Nothing has changed. The word stays the same. The impact too.
I always paint wherever I want, however I want.

Journalist:
Why refuse to be recognized?

VANDL:
Because art does not need a face. A word does not need a name.

Journalist:
What impact do you want your work to have on people?

VANDL:
I don’t want people to think too much. I want them to feel. To take the shock of my word straight in the face.

Journalist:
Last question. Where is VANDL headed?

VANDL:
In front of him, until there is nothing left to say.

MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST:

No one really knows who he is. Some say he comes from Paris, others place him in Barcelona, or perhaps Berlin.

His artistic approach: the word as a visual explosion

VANDL does not paint images. He does not tell complicated stories. He strikes with a word. One word only.
• A word written at the top of the canvas, like a cry.
• A word that flows, refuses to be tidy, refuses to freeze.
• A word that asks for no explanation.
You feel it, or you walk away.

One thing is certain: he has left his mark everywhere.
His early works appeared under bridges, on the dirty city walls, in places society prefers to forget. Raw words, dripping with rage and truth, leaving trails behind them, as if the word itself cried or bled.

From streets to galleries… without compromise

Each painting is a contained explosion, a silent manifesto addressed directly to the viewer.

He never appears in public. He continues to place his works in the street, in secret, as a tribute to his origins.

No one knows where he will strike next.

VANDL is elusive — a street art phantom, a poet of urban minimalism.
