A life-size fresco, like a street wall! Rey Oner and Tones come together for an exceptional staging between illustration and letters. This work with strong, dynamic and attractive colors presents us once again the offbeat and humorous universe of Tones, through its very "street" characters always immersed in the Graffiti or Hip Hop universe. The very prominent colors of the characters in Tones harmonize perfectly with the more pastel but equally prominent colors of the letters in Rey. Tones almost always represents elements of the native context of Graffiti, here it is the New York skytrain that we can guess at the top left... and the smoke it gives off which creates a blood-red background perfect for contrast the "pieces of the two artists. Rey gives us here powerful and aggressive letters in style. Few connections between the letters which reveal a natural and catchy flow of them. This work of more than 7 meters long will require a wall to be installed. It will certainly give an unusual and eye-catching style to your interior. The creases visible in the photos disappear once the canvas is stretched. So don't worry about the quality of our canvases. they are kept rolled.

Presentation
Rey enters the world of graffiti in 1989 in Geneva through hip hop culture. He begins with the wild tag in the street and then learn about the colorful fresco. In 1990, with the help of three other artists, he created the collective EDK (esprit du karton). From the beginning of the adventure, the EDK stood out with their calligraphic and foundational style, directly inspired by the New York and Parisian schools. In 1991, Rey flew to the USA to continue his studies in art school. This trip takes a decisive turning point in his career as a writer (graffiti artist). It was during this period that he met many American artists, some of whom joined the EDK collective. From 1991 to 1995, Rey lived in Seattle where he painted an average of 2 to 3 frescoes per week.
In 1997 he went back to live in New York until 2002. During these ten years in the USA, Rey experienced hip hop and graffiti writing in an intense way, rubbing shoulders with various legends and activists of American hip hop. Rey specializes in lettering. It's the typographic side of the New York graffiti school that motivates him. He has painted over a thousand frescoes worldwide and in any medium. After more than 24 years of non-stop “underground" graffiti in the street, Rey is now exhibiting in galleries, while preserving its authentic side of pure graffiti.
