Gerbos Mad City

About Me

Gerbos Mad City, was born in Madrid and has been a street artist since 2005.

He used to decorate news-stands and walls in Madrid and hitchhike to other cities to leave his footprint.

In 2009 he went to London where he joined the squatting movement and continued painting walls and canvas for three years. After this he continued to travel through Europe and the Balkans participating at artistic events and wall projects with associations and communities. The goal was always to create together and empower the underground culture and the self-sustainability outside of the system.

Gerbos Mad City has a design and scenography degree and is trained as painter and draughtsman. He creates his sculptures and his paintings either on wall, canvas or skin. Almost all of his artwork is made with recycled materials because of his philosophy of recycling and reusing material and supports trash-art not just as a way of art but as a way of living.
