ARTIST BIO

Street artist, DEFER, amalgamates the urban landscape and the realm of fine art. Alex Kizu, aka DEFER, gives Art of Protest a reach back to the early origins of street art. Defer transcends his youth in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, to share the influences of the street art scenes progression from his own murals, to fine art canvases and signed limited edition prints. As a pioneer member of the first generation of LA Graffiti crews, K2S, STN and KGB, Kizu’s influence on the Los Angeles graffiti movement is profound. Edified by early New York graffiti, and more importantly, the neighbourhood “placaso” style, indigenous to LA; Defer culminates these experiences to define a unique internationalist genre.
