Street Artist NYCHOS

By NYCHOS for Stadt Wand Kunst at Neckarvorlandstraße 17 – 19, 68159 Mannheim, Germany.

From Stadt Wand Kunst: With rock music in his ears, a mixture of chocolate smell and Montana Can’s varnish in his nose, and sweat on his skin, the 38-year-old and his long-time friend David Leitner spent three days feverishly at work. From day one, the rather quiet Neckarvorlandstrasse in the industrial area was transformed into a place of pilgrimage for street art enthusiasts, attracted by the ease with which NYCHOS created its own universe on a 15 meter high wall. The speed and the intoxication brought NYCHOS to graffiti and spray cans as a teenager – and have not let go since today. Canvas or facade – his answer is clear. Especially the big walls can keep up with his pace and his ideas. “I can only work as fast as my head thinks with the spray can.” Read it all here.

SpongeBob has a skeleton, people live inside rabbits

NYCHOS BIO

Blending themes of morbid corporeality with the colorful, hyper-loony aesthetic descended from comics and cartoons, Nychos has developed a unique style that performs with powerhouse effect whether on the street or in the gallery.

Raised in a traditional Viennese hunting family, death and dissection were daily business for Nychos. The proximity to animal viscera had a profound effect on him psychologically and visually – he now explores the theme of dissection in his art, pushing it to playful extremes. In Nychos’ world, SpongeBob has a skeleton, people live inside rabbits and there is always something wicked underneath. Pumped up on the visual adrenaline of comics, heavy metal and graffiti, Nychos’ work reflects the immense energy and technical focus necessary to produce work on the massive scale he has reached on the streets.

Colliding style and subject matter, Nychos slices up animals and innocent childhood characters with unflinching graphic precision. His work confronts the viewer with wicked insistence, using the shock of cartoon violence as a vehicle for exploring subtler themes of mortality and temporality. Nychos pays homage to these deathless cartoon heroes by peeling them open and giving them human substance. His artwork reflects the psychology of an art scene in which creations are sometimes swept away as soon as created. Nychos also uses subtle imagery such as plastic in an orca’s belly, weaving political commentary seamlessly into his pieces.

Using delicious color-scapes and wild, fuming lines to create his characters – whether with paintbrush or spray can – Nychos works with unmatched dynamism. His command over his tools indicates a work ethic that promises only more staggering output from this artist. Nychos’ paintings and drawings have been exhibited in galleries worldwide, including six solo exhibitions (Turino, Detroit, New York, San Francisco, Singapore, Paris) in the past two years alone. These pieces serve as unique compliments to his massive public works that give character to cities all over the world.

Street Artist Satr

Mural by Satr at Alsenweg 64 in Mannheim, Germany for STADT.WAND.KUNST.

Satr: “Whisper” The transmission of emotions is full of fluidity. Listen gently. You will get the answer. I received an invitation from 2019, but for various reasons I couldn’t come to Mannheim. Although this mural is three years ‘late’, but everything is the best arrangement. Otherwise I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet some of my new best friends. Thank you STADT.WAND.KUNST team and Montana Cans made this happen. ❤️🖤

Satr: My draft concept is; A lot of things have happened in the past year, and each thing will have different answers in different positions. I drew a mountain lion. The flame is its consciousness. It ignites in front of it and surrounds it in a circle. I hope that anyone who sees this work will find a peaceful mood. Face these things calmly.

About SATR: She works and lives in Guangzhou (China) and has been doing street art since 2013. Her original spray painting atomization shape method makes her animals very dynamic, taking fog as the shape.

This is different from the realistic shaping of western oil painting, and deeply studies the permeability of graffiti spray paint, so that her works still have the charm of ink in addition to peeling off traditional Chinese painting tools.

SATR’s works can see the profound exuberance of western graffiti and the soft “XieYi “(traditional Chinese painting style in vivid expression and bold outline) brushwork of oriental painting, which runs through her works all the time. The signature of the ancient seal cutting style is the oriental imprint that she conveys to the outside world.
