Seth Globepainter2. Seth GlobepainterBorn in Paris, Seth began to express himself on the walls of his city in the mid-90s. His preferred terrain, however, was in the 20th district where he became known in the graffiti scene for his specialization of painting characters. Graduate of the Ecole Nationale des Arts Décoratifs, he published alongside Gautier Bischoff in 2000 the book Kapital, which to this day remains one the best-selling books about French graffiti. Together, they founded Wasted Talent in 2004, a publishing house that specializes in monographs of urban artists. Before becoming a full-tine artist, Seth worked in the creative industries: advertising, cartoons, comics. He painted in the street for his own pleasure. Starting from 2003, he went on a trip around the world to exchange with artists from different cultures, and to open up to new ways of living and painting in urban areas. This experience culminated in the book Globe Painter published in 2007 following with the documentary series Les Nouveaux Explorateurs produced and broadcast by Canal+ where Seth proposed to discover a country through the prism of its urban arts. For 5 years, he took a part in travelling to 15 destinations full of meaning. During the course of his artistic explorations, Seth developed his distinct painting style, working often with the theme of childhood. Using the wall as a blank page, Seth relies on one hand the individual or collective imagination – local gods, myths, or tales. The child becomes a spokesperson, a messenger of his investigations. He puts into play his image of innocence, and places his character in difficult social, political and geographical contexts. An approach that often has a dual meaning yet is never cynical; an urban painting that is engaged in alerting on the state of the world as a means to advance it.
Slim safont9. Slim safontSlim Safont (Berga, Barcelona, ​​1995) is a visual artist and muralist with a degree in Fine Arts from the University of Barcelona. His foray into art began at an early age, instinctively exploring the world of urban art and painting since he was 12. Since 2017, his name has been present on the art scene both nationally and internationally. He is the co-founder and member of Malpaís, a multifaceted off-space space in Barcelona dedicated to artistic production. Malpaís promotes an annual program of exhibitions and projects that expand the boundaries of the contemporary scene. His work is distinguished by a constant pictorial investigation that seeks to capture a personal and critical vision of the social issues he considers relevant to his environment. Through figurative and realistic language, with a meticulous study of color, Safont develops compositions that generate awareness and engage with the context in which they are inserted. Specializing in interventions in public spaces, his mural work explores narratives linked to everyday life, capturing the essence of each community through portraiture, the human figure, and landscape. His aesthetic approach, influenced by photography and a deep chromatic analysis, allows him to create evocative atmospheres with a great visual impact. In addition to his work in urban art, he has participated in numerous international mural projects and has exhibited his work in various art venues, ranging from galleries and conventional exhibition spaces to more alternative offerings.
Gomad12. GomadMarcus Debie, better known as GOMAD, is a Dutch muralist and visual storyteller who turns ordinary walls into portals of wonder. Raised in the Netherlands, Marcus built his craft on the street — one spray can at a time — layering realism with raw emotion and unexpected color shifts. Nature, urban grit and human connection collide in his murals: birds, flowers, figures alive enough to step off the wall. He prefers and works mainly with spray paint, but often combines it with hand-painted backgrounds in wall paint — nevertheless he can execute entire murals with brushes alone, bringing the same level of detail and realism as in his oil paintings and spray painted murals. Every piece is an experiment in control and freedom, precision and chaos. For Marcus, a mural is never just paint on bricks — it’s a conversation with a neighborhood. He believes public art should break routine, spark curiosity and bring people together. With roots in European street art culture, he aims to bring that fearless, rebellious spirit to every city — adding a burst of color and a spark of wonder to every festival. Process & Materials: Freehand spray paint, layered gradients, transparent tones, sharp contrasts. VR sketches or hand-drawn grids guide the flow — but the wall always has the final say. Why he paints: To remind people that magic still hides in plain sight — if you dare to look up. Tagline: Walls don’t stand a chance.

At 19, she began tattooing professionally and quickly established her own studio, Tattoo Djoels Ink, in Deinze, Belgium. Around the same time, she started experimenting with spray paint, joining the Lostflammos graffiti crew. This experience helped her transition from traditional graffiti lettering to realism. Her breakthrough came in 2017 when she won the title of Ink Master: Meesters van de Lage Landen, the Dutch/Belgian edition of the popular InkMaster TV show. The victory cemented her reputation in the tattoo industry and expanded her recognition beyond Belgium. Besides tattooing, Djoels is passionate about oil painting and large-scale murals. Her work often features intricate portraits, including tributes to figures like Eminem, whose music played a significant role in her life.

Gijs Vanhee18. Gijs VanheeGijs Vanhee, born in 1982 and based in Mechelen, Belgium, has a background in illustration and a passion for drawing and graffiti since childhood. Since 2016, he has focused on telling a coherent story throughout his body of work that spreads across various mediums, including paper, canvas, print, digital art, and mural paintings. Vanhee's narrative drawings often feature humans with bird heads, which he calls his "freebirds." These characters represent the idea of humans being free in their heads through imagination and reflect Vanhee's search for freedom and balance between nature and society. His works invite viewers to take the time to stop and look around, search for stories or questions about humans, and reflect on how we've drifted away from who we are. Vanhee's drawings have a recognizable style, often in black and white or with limited use of color. He uses elements and textures present in murals to create his work, and he often draws inspiration from his travels and local stories to fill in the details. The artist draws inspiration from nature, travel, surf and skate culture, graphic novelists, and other artists. Vanhee strives to keep his work honest by maintaining a sketchy feeling. His freebirds act as protagonists, taking viewers on a journey through his story. Vanhee's oeuvre is not bound by murals but continues through various mediums, allowing his freebirds to come to life in a story that forms a coherent whole. He creates art that is visible and enjoyable to a broad audience.
