| Born in 1992 in California, Hijack is a contemporary art prodigy whose work is a revelation in street art - his pieces are imaginative, brilliantly constructed and seen in cultural hot spots all over the globe, from Los Angeles to London.
Hijack has street art in his blood; he is the son of infamous pop artist, Mr. Brainwash, and he grew up around renowned street artists such as Space Invader, Bansky, and Shepard Fairey. As he's evolved as an artist, Hijack has found his own voice and has crafted a persona, inspired by the spirit of music and the poetry of everyday moments, that creates colorful and meaningful perspectives on life.
In 2013, Hijack took the UK art scene by storm with his gallery debut at the prestigious Mead Carney Fine Art Gallery on Dover street in London. The highly anticipated show was sold out before being extended. He was subsequently featured in publications such as Art of England, Huffington Post UK, The Art Newspaper, and the Telegraph.
The momentum of Hijack's initial success has made him a contemporary art phenomenon; he has exhibited world wide and has collaborated with some of contemporary art's most renowned street artist such as NY's Cope and Japan's Dragon 76. Currently Hijack is based in Los Angeles where he continues to push the boundaries of contemporary art. |
