The Culture StoryFutura, the godfather of contemporary street art from New York, will hold a Southeast Asian debut solo show in Singapore with "Constellation", where fans can explore his cognitive galaxy through his distinctive abstract graffiti style. Curated by Singapore's leading pop artist, Jahan Loh, the exhibition delves into Futura's inner universe and celebrates his pioneering spirit for inventing new spraying techniques, including his most iconic signature move, the inverted spray. The bold, vibrant compositions are marked by a repertoire of forms and iconic motifs he has come to be known for -- characters, atoms, cranes. Constellation is a nod to Futura's first encounter with Singapore in 1974. "The exhibition of my new work is not just a reference to the stars in our universe, but also to the mystery of my personal history and experiences in such a tropical paradise," said Futura.
