Noc167 started writing graffiti on trains when he was only eleven years old. He quit this business in 1980 and started working on canvas. He gained fame with his extraordinary three-dimensional letters and the use of atmospheric effects. Noc167's paintings feature experiments with letter combinations, abstract passages, striking characters, and narrative elements. In this work, he combines a cartoon-like self-portrait with his characteristic tag with arrows, next to his preferred nickname: 'Prince of Graffiti'.
