Rojo Roma is an Argentinian street artist. Some refer to him as “The Picasso of Street Art” – that is limiting the talent of Picasso. Every time journalists see square shapes and a few colors they try to compare it to Picasso. Rojo Roma is nowhere near there, yet. His work uses vivid colors and uncoordinated patterns reminiscent of a children’s messy art book. If you look at his work for too long, his animalistic creatures will make you slightly nauseous.

However, one must respect Rojo Romas‘ ability to capture a childish vision. Pablo Picasso once said: “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.” Rojo Roma captures that philosophy in his exploding pieces.

The mystical vibe that emanates from his piece is captivating. His work merges a childish vision and a trippy 60s’ experience.
