KATUN
MALAYSIA
Here to make a statement in the heart of Malaysia while bridging two worlds of dark and light through Darwinism is; Katun. A talented local who has created a name and identity for himself through his love for reinterpreting cartoon characters as his signature graffiti style. If you have ventured out in the cultured streets of Kuala Lumpur, you were bound to cross paths with one of Katun’s statement pieces – his apes. Known for its very robust body form, Katun has redefined his apes to take a humanistic silhouette while creating his own shapes that stem from their naturally disjointed limbs.
To date, he has founded his own art collective 4 Stages, forging brand collaborations with Marshall, JBL, Oppo, Tealive, Proton, Hua Wei, Sony and more – as well as a notable roster of renowned artists such as Grammy winners Chris Brown, Dua Lipa and Post Malone amongst others. With a growing worldwide presence, Katun’s work is sure to make a mark in your city soon.
