Michael Grems Enevo, a multidisciplinary artist, blends post-graffiti and abstraction, resulting in a captivating and vibrant aesthetic. From his early days in the graffiti scene to his evolution as a rapper and painter, Grems continuously pushes the boundaries of his art, defying conventions and embracing new forms of expression.
Grems’ artistic path began in the 90s when he immersed himself in the vibrant hip-hop culture, embracing disciplines such as graffiti, scratching, dancing, and rapping. He found himself drawn to both rap and graffiti, becoming deeply rooted in the hip-hop movement. The absence of internet and a lack of alternative pursuits for young people at the time fueled his commitment to this multifaceted culture.
„ I create accidents to gain new forms.“
Michael Eveno Grems, 2023.
Throughout his artistic evolution, Grems has seamlessly integrated his graffiti roots into his abstract creations, deconstructing and reimagining the codes and techniques of graffiti. His works retain a sense of familiarity, even as he introduces abstraction and experimental elements. This fusion of graffiti and abstraction blurs the lines between different artistic realms, challenging perceptions and sparking intrigue among both graffiti artists and those unfamiliar with the genre.
The artist refuses to be confined by artistic labels or conventions. He continually seeks new ways to expand his artistic horizons, veering away from established aesthetics and introducing accidents and imperfections to break the mold. By merging his rap career with his artistry, he creates a unique synergy between his two passions, allowing them to inform and inspire each other.
As Grems looks to the future, he aspires to see his artworks exhibited in galleries and esteemed museum institutions. His distinctive style, characterized by a mix of clean lines and a vibrant energy, has already earned him recognition, including an exhibition at the renowned Pompidou Center. With an unwavering commitment to artistic exploration and a desire to challenge the status quo, Grems continues to push the boundaries of his art, offering a fresh perspective on the world and leaving an indelible mark on the art scene.
