Bom.K continues to evolve his varied, bombastic style with recent work that appears as a controlled cacophony of influences. Works like “Anything” (above) implement spraypaint and the canvas, offering a look at approaches the artist has used throughout his career. He was last mentioned on HiFructose.com here.

“Founding member of the mythical DMV crew, Bom.ka developed in the 90s a unique style of characters, combining his old school influences technique and precision without equal,” a statement says, as translated from French. “Since the early 2000s, he has moved away from the traditional rules of graffiti to follow his own path, especially on canvas. Through his painting, Bom.K transports us into a frightening freak show that mixes in an anguishing way, deformed monsters and hybrid creatures.”
