Blade

KING OF GRAFF

"In the early 80´s thousand of young people united on what they believed to be a quest toward painting the walls and trains in New York City.

One of these young people was a 15 year old boy from the Bronx, known as Blade.

During more then a decade, Blade spend days and nights painting subway-trains in New York City. More than 5000 in total. An achievement that later gave him the title - King of graff.

This is a portrait of Blade, a man who started out as a graffiti painter, and who ended up a great artist."
