Mixed media (acrylic, spray paint, oil pastel, cardboard) on canvas – 42x32 in / 107x82 cm (2021)
Raw and visceral, Samo channels the rebellious energy of graffiti and expressive abstraction. With its vivid drips, gestural marks, and symbolic elements like the golden crown and bold red lips, the piece feels both spontaneous and intentional. Layers of spray paint and embedded cardboard add tactile tension, evoking the grit of urban walls. Referencing the spirit of the original SAMO tag and neo-expressionism, this painting reflects a chaotic yet poetic dialogue between identity, power, and visual rebellion.
