Letters, that once upon a time, were his main source of inspiration were slowly turning into forms that could not be any longer recognized as letters. He deconstructed the structure of the letter in graffiti culture and instead of outline he used a simple line and instead of colored letter forms he just used color.

Then he reached the level of pure abstraction which might be inspired by letters or landscapes but he does not allow us to see the sources of his inspiration. With abstract forms he started playing with the idea of a “wall sculpture” (made of plexiglass and MDF). They gave him a new way of experimenting with shapes and shades before he could reintegrate them into two-dimensional pieces again. Over the time these pieces became exponentially larger and to some extent softer. Change has been instigated by his new found love for the landscapes which he finds easily transformed into abstract shapes. And while he makes his murals and new muralism pieces larger and larger he experiments with prints as well. Both walls and prints bring not only different scales but also different dimensions he can play with in order to boost the effect of his art pieces.
