Chor Boogie's Bio

Though Chor Boogie uses spray cans to create his art, he insists that he is worlds away from his days of tagging for street cred - whether or not that stance appeals to the hipsters who view his art. He describes the evolution as a movement away from vandalism to the fine arts of aerosol, a world that creates rather than diminishes, proposing a positive approach to the world rather than a negative one. Chor Boogie's art ranges from soulful, deftly shaded portraits to color therapy, with geometric elements adding up to half-hidden faces, and a mind's eye or two to encourage you to see internally and externally.

Chor Boogie has stated: "There is a genuine spiritual love for what I do, an approach based more in feelings than in thought." There is no color he doesn't use, as he creates a wide range of forms using an inverted spray can technique which slows the pressure of the paint and creates dense, rich tones. And though it would seem that not limiting his color palette could result in an almost violent barrage of hues and forms-within-forms, Chor Boogie has developed a sense of order in his layers of work.
