Artists
Here’s an artist and designer who’s traveled as extensively as his art as. Born in ’74, a street artist since ’89, Esher began exhibiting in Berlin and taking his work abroad that very same year, seeking a new audience in Australia. Since then, while continuing to play a central and very visible role in the graffiti scene of the German capital, he’s exhibited all over Germany and toted his case of spray cans as far as LA, New York, Thailand, India, South Africa, France and Istanbul. His extensively catalogued body of work on walls and in public spaces includes music-inspired pieces with characteristic humour. Just check some of the titles: ‘Snare Style’, ‘Make Love Not Parade’, ‘This Is Not a Love Song’ and ‘La Vie en Gris’. As Esher’s prominence grew he began to be commissioned for public art such as a work placing text by Goethe at angles around the precipice of a tall stone building, and specialized graffiti on a football stadium in Salzburg. The owner of a individualistic multidisciplinary design business, he has somehow made time to found the Metataggers and Pseudonyme Gesellschaft collectives, as well as curating a hip hop summerschool in Berlin and co-creating a science fiction graffiti movie MOEBIUS17.
