Rafael Sliks
Rafael Sliks, born in 1981 in São Paulo, is an internationally recognized street writer and visual artist. Rooted in graffiti culture, his signature style blends speed, repetition, and physical presence. He transforms the illegal tag into an expressive tool that moves fluidly between street art and abstract painting. Using oil paint and a vibrant color palette, Sliks reinterprets urban calligraphy into dynamic compositions. His works function like visual mantras — his name written over and over until line and meaning dissolve into abstraction. Sliks is less interested in perfection than in movement, physicality, and the raw, unfiltered gesture. His practice balances chaos and control, rebellion and refinement. It also reflects his biography: the tension between marginality and recognition, between transgression and the art world. Whether on canvas, wall, or paper, Sliks invites viewers to read his gestures and discover a new, abstract language of the city.
