Matěj Olmer
He is a pioneer of abstract, raw, and expressive graffiti, which he conceives as an open, emotional artistic discipline. A progressive, inspiring, and uncompromising painter. He professes an expression based on "unguided" intuition. He layers suggestive gestural painting over each other in an action-oriented way and freely combines it most often with the principles of collage. He is characterised by a strong colourism, a sense of experimentation, and momentary improvisation. His work is often based on his own poetry.
