Felix Gephart
Draftsman, painter and graffiti artist
Felix Gephart started drawing on papers and spraying on walls at a young age. The latter captivated him in particular. Initially, it was primarily letters, a pseudonym in ever-changing variations and color combinations, classic graffiti influenced by American models and that of his older brother, who had turned to writing. At the age of 12, he was probably one of the youngest taggers in his hometown of Bochum. Later on, drawings and images were added to the lettering, conveying literary, sometimes satirical, and political content. Much of what he painted before studying, he learned from older and experienced graffiti writers.
