Short bio:

MrKas was born in Porto (Portugal) in 1980.
His passion for art began at a young age with his father, also painter, who had a big influence on him throughout his childhood. MrKas started painting graffiti in the streets of Porto in 1999.
In 2010 he moves to Spain and in the following years he lived between Belgium and United Kingdom.
Since those early street days his work can be seen in murals, canvas, museums and exhibitions all around the world.
His main inspiration is people. People and their feelings, their lives, their stories, their circumstances.
Therefore traveling plays a big role.
Visually he likes the idea of deconstruct an image and turn it into something unique, creating 3D effects, abstract patterns or anamorphic shapes all in a photorealistic technique.
