Calma aka Stephan Doitschinoff

“When I was growing up my inspirations were skateboard illustrations, cartoons. However I am also inspired by features of Holy art, the dissidence of Holy art and I think I work with something that touches a lot of us, the culture of memorials and death, and that brings people together.”

Titi Freak aka HamiltonYokota

“I have this connection with people who live in my home of Liberdade. They can connect to my work in a more direct way. I feel good being here and working here. My work shows Brazilian culture - my habitat, my background, the people, the graffiti, the favelas. I show simple things from Brazil in the most artistic way possible.”

Speto aka Paulo Cesar Silva

“Graffiti art is free art, offering free culture for people. Art and music you can teach but you don’t have to go to university. Working on this project directly with the kids and using new art to help people, it’s an honour and a power. Power brings enlightenment.”
