Street Art Journey in China

In 2019, after my travel in Hong-Kong, Vietnam and Cambodia, I embarked on a trip to China with the goal of painting walls using spray cans. The hip-hop culture there is very vibrant, and I had the chance to collaborate with local artists throughout my journey. I started in Shanghai, where I painted with Dezio. Then, I headed to Beijing, where I met Andy and Xer and created a mural on the wall of their spray shop. After visiting the Great Wall and several temples, I traveled to Chengdu to paint with Jakob and Klub2020 in an abandoned location. I finished my trip in Leishan, at the foot of the world’s largest Buddha, carved into the rock.
