Art
Phlegm's monochrome murals are populated by hybrid figures and strange interactions that feel like half-remembered myths. His recent turn to copper engraving reveals a deep reverence for Dürer and the Northern Renaissance, translating that meticulous line work back into large-scale public art. The tension between tiny engraved details and broad mural strokes creates a unique visual language.
The artist's approach is refreshingly narrative-driven: he writes full backstories for his works, then deliberately leaves out key parts, inviting viewers to fill the gaps. This honesty and intentional obscurity make his imagery both accessible and mysterious. Whether on walls or paper, Phlegm's work rewards close looking while retaining a playful, enigmatic spirit.
