Aryz

Aryz (born Octavi Arrizabalaga, 1988) is a Spanish painter, muralist, and illustrator who emerged from the Barcelona graffiti scene in the early 2000s. Born in Palo Alto, California, he moved to Spain at age three and grew up near Barcelona. He is known for enormous freehand murals, often spanning entire building facades, painted with rollers and house paint without the aid of projection. His work features surreal figurative characters with skeletal and anatomical motifs rendered in a muted, painterly palette. He founded the Mixed Media art collective in 2007 and designed the album cover for Aesop Rock's Skelethon (2012).
