ART

hi Guys

does anyone know of any up and coming talented artists?
I'm doing a feature about Art and artists from a Muslim background
Not necessarily ISLAMIC art per se, but all kinds, but predominantly, I want artists from a Muslim background - they don't have to be practicing as such but of that background.

Cheers

How would you describe the work that you do?

It's about the fusion of graffiti art with Islamic art. Fusing these two elements together to create an urban spiritual art form.

How did you start out as an urban artist?
