ept started painting graffiti in 1986 aged 14, and quickly became known for his prolific style, use of colours and scale of work. Over the past 20 years he has transformed the visual landscape of London, with his unique mix of letterforms and appropriated pop art, across walls and shop fronts. One of the first artists to take his work to the streets of Shoreditch, Cept continues to pioneer and has become a true legend of the UK graffiti scene. In 2007 Cept graduated from St. Martins school of art with an MA in fine art. Now working from his studio in London he continues to exhibit regularly, both in galleries and on the street, specialising in large scale murals and creating immersive multimedia installations. His most recent exhibition at Known Gallery, Los Angeles, saw his all his work sell in the first week of opening, and features in many private collections world wide.
