Profiles.
Rush One (b. 1994, Burma) embarked on his exploration of graffiti lettering during seventh grade when he encountered the pioneers of Myanmar's graffiti collective YSA in 2007. Over a decade of pushing artistic boundaries, his unwavering dedication to his craft persists.
Having left his indelible marks throughout the country, his exhibited pieces have faced removal over the years. Undeterred, he actively sows the seeds of creativity, aiding newcomers in the scene. Since 2019, he has been at the helm of Burma Sketch Jam, a platform where he imparts knowledge and techniques to youth on a daily basis. Through numerous specialized graffiti and letter-writing workshops, he contributes to the growth of aspiring artists. Engaging in both non-profit and commercial/promotional campaigns, he has become a prominent figure in the artistic community.
In 2022, he committed himself to studio practice at Very Serious Studio, honing his image-making techniques across various mediums and surfaces. His journey culminates in the celebration of his first solo show this Saturday at Ivy Gallery.
