MTO

He is French but lives in Berlin, his name is Mateo but everybody knows him as MTO. Most of his work you can see in the streets of Berlin; Black-and-white graffiti with a touch of red and pink of mostly famous pop culture icons, but also some really known movie scenes. These photos represent some of his best work throughout his career so far, and that is what makes Berlin such a great town for street art. MTO started with graffiti when he went to Barcelona one time with his friend who got him into it. The portraits are 8-9 feets high and wide and it takes him about 2-5 hours to finish one piece which sounds amazing when you take the quality of his work in consideration. He admirers and gets inspiration from artists like Banksy, Annie Lebowitz and Zevs among many others, which is weird because for a great amount of people he is the one that is considered as best street artist of our time.
