Artwork Description: Back in high school I got introduced to the free flow part of my style by my art teacher who was trying to get me to do more than one character per page. We ended up giving me a big board to fill but I would still leave massive gaps between the characters. To combat this we took one of my characters and made it big, then where I would colour in sections in black (I only ever used black,white and red) I was challenged to fill those sections with whatever I could draw. Over the years it evolved and allowed me to free flow shapes as a reverse Rorschach test.

Limited to 5 prints signed and numbered, produced using pigment inks on 200gsm premium silk coated paper prints.

Rukz One was born and raised in the Western Suburbs of Melbourne, Australia. Often described as unique and polarising, he (and his art) swings between the simple and the complex. His art draws inspiration from skateboarding, hip-hop, the Melbourne street art/graffiti culture, and humanity.

Now focused on the Artdecypher banner and his position as Gallery Manager at The Corner Studio, community, and collaboration are driving forces in his work. Rukz has also held positions as a member of Wyndham City’s Creative City Portfolio Advisory Committee and the Wyndham City’s Public Art & Collections Expert Advisory Panel (PACEAP).
