NUNO VIEGAS
Nuno Viegas (aka Metis) is a Portuguese artist born in Faro and raised in Quarteira. Founder of the art collective Policromia Crew, he started his artistic journey with graffiti in 1999. After completing his studies in Visual Arts at the University of Algarve he moved to Rotterdam in 2014, where he discovered a new artistic identity and began to develop his paintings strongly influenced by the graffiti scene. This has been the focal point of the artist’s production and his greatest source of inspiration. In his works, Nuno presents us with a contrast between the visually aggressive and sometimes dirty reality of traditional graffiti and its peaceful and clean representation. The approach to this theme is a continuous tribute to all those who dedicate part of their lives to this scene. We can see his work expanding throughout walls and art venues all over the globe, continuously aiming to improve and move towards his dream – tagging the moon.
