Artist Bio

URSH's artistic evolution began in Amsterdam, where he transitioned from traditional graffiti to the distinctive post-graffiti style he's known for today. His art combines classic graffiti elements with new techniques and textures, adding depth and story to the urban landscapes he paints within. Coming from a graphic design background, his work is characterized by precision and a keen eye for design, influenced by styles like Bauhaus and Brutalism. As an international artist revisiting Melbourne, he has already made a positive impact with his earlier murals, resonating with the local art community.  

His art goes beyond the visual; it encourages viewers to connect with their emotions and discover personal meanings, rather than simply interpreting the imagery. He aims to create murals that forge lasting emotional connections, giving viewers the opportunity to reflect and engage with the art on a deeper level. 

Artist Description of the artwork

The mural concept integrates organic shapes and a vibrant color palette to evoke Frankston's natural charm and cultural vibrancy, reflecting the Ursh's appreciation for Australia. It features an anamorphic element to engage viewers and aligns with The Big Picture festival's mission to enhance the street art scene.
