ABOUT ME
Greetings, I'm Gil, also known as Simba. Hailing - Luxembourg, I've been immersed in the world of art since my earliest memories. At the age of 8, I achieved my first artistic triumph in a national painting competition, setting the stage for my lifelong dedication to creativity.
Throughout my academic years, my textbooks served as canvases for my burgeoning artistic expression, evolving from simple doodles to intricate figurative and abstract compositions.
Upon relocating to Cologne in 2014, I found resonance within the graffiti community, honing my skills amidst the urban landscape. Over time, I felt compelled to integrate the diverse mediums that had shaped my artistic journey.
Thus, my current body of work emerges—a harmonious blend of oils, spray paint, and acrylics, seamlessly weaving figurative elements with abstract concepts. In marrying classic graffiti with emotional depth, my paintings serve as a conduit for introspection and expression.
