An Urban Artist I'd Like You to Meet - SpY: Madrid

Some of SpY's pieces are "classics" in my book. Hailing from Madrid, SpY is a famous urban artist that uses many different mediums. His work consists in the playful reappropriation of urban elements, that he replicates or transforms, and then installs in the street. SpY's pieces are meant to shake up the equilibrium of an urban dweller. His work is full of irony and a positive sense of humor and seek to inspire a smile and a thought. Love your work SpY - keep it up!
