Vance

Chinese painter and street artist Vance discovered hip hop as a teenager, balancing it with the landscape painting lessons he’d begun at ten years old. His experience as a b-boy and a Wu-Tang Clan CD encouraged him to try his hand at graffiti. As a young adult, he merged his creative pursuits and influences, employing fine art techniques and an array of pop-culture influences to create large-scale hyperrealistic murals and oil paintings with a keen attention to detail. Vance’s works typically feature his fascination with light and shadow, Western animation, and materials such as glass and ice. His body of work evokes a nostalgic celebration of his youth while displaying a degree of skill and discipline that has clearly been honed over the course of his entire life.

Vance is the only member of world-famous graffiti crew DNA in Asia, and a member of Thailand's MSV crew. He has exhibited and painted murals across the world, including the United States, Thailand, the Philippines, Bulgaria, Japan, Macau, South Korea, Indonesia, Mauritius, Germany, and Australia, for nearly a decade.
