Papa Mesk ( Born in 1972 ) Graffiti French artist since 1986, founding member of the UTP crew, "Underground Tribal Painterz". He is an actor and witness of the evolution of Graffiti in Paris and other European cities. Passionate about art and calligraphy, he is also known for his prolific activity and the style of his Tags. His canvases are instinctively built by accumulation of tags, in a palette of highly vibrant colors. Each drop, sparkle and runoff, is the object of meticulous attention, allowing their perfect integration into the final composition. His works become more abstract and the composition more graphic. Authenticity, dynamism, color, and evolution characterize his work.
