Based in Brooklyn, New York, street artist Aakash Nihalani paints the wall with brightly colored tape. The artist made the cover of Das Racist‘s mixtape following a short exchange via email with Heems. “It came about naturally, mutual respect,” he explains.
Geometrical shapes are used to either transport or help his characters travel from the wall to a universe of abstraction. It’s not about what he creates aesthetically but the impact it has on the viewers. Cells are thought to be the building blocks of life. But it is creativity that is the building block of living.
