BUA-Hip-Hop visual Artist

I grew up in the chaos of New York City as Hip-Hop was being born. The hustlers, the players, the characters on my block, their faces, swagger and their stories stayed with me. This man carries pieces of people I knew: a look, a stance, an attitude you never forget. They live in my imagination now, shaped by memory and the madness of the city that raised me. When I paint them, I bring that world back to life. It’s my childhood in paint.
