Born in Jerez de la Frontera in 1986, COSA.V discovered his passion for urban art at the age of 12, when he painted his first graffiti with spray paint. Since then, he has been immersed in graffiti culture, drawing inspiration from his roots and the dynamic energy of the urban environment. He began his artistic journey exploring classic styles such as wild style, throw-ups, and bubble letters, later progressing into realism. His training at the Art School of Jerez was a key point in his career, guiding him toward figurative drawing and audiovisual art. This experience allowed him to expand his skills and embrace new techniques, enriching his style and creativity. As a member of the historic hip-hop crew “Andalucía Vandals,” founded in 1994, COSA.V has made his mark in numerous musical events, exhibitions, and art festivals across Spain and internationally, with shows in France, Germany, Portugal, and New York. Recently, his work has garnered attention from national press and television, standing out for murals such as La Paquera de Jerez, Migue Benítez, and the Mural de Baco, in addition to winning first prize at the urban art festival in Linares. His work as a muralist also includes collaborations with companies and private clients, until he ventured into the world of tattooing in 2015. Currently, he is part of the team at “Pol Tattoo Studio,” a leading studio where he maintains a waiting list of over six months, reflecting the demand and prestige of his work. COSA.V’s pictorial work is a unique fusion of his passion for the Renaissance and hip-hop culture. His murals and canvases radiate urban energy, paying homage to beloved community figures and bringing the spirit of the street to the canvas. His versatility as a muralist, tattoo artist, and rapper positions him as a complete artist, committed to his vision and principles, always seeking new projects to express his art and identity.
