Malarko
England
Mark Malarko is a British artist currently working in Barcelona. Introduced to the world of alternative culture through his years spent as a skateboarder in London during the 90s, Malarko gained notoriety in the noughties for his prolific output of public mural works both sanctioned and unsanctioned. He has since developed a loose and energetic style that merges traditional techniques with unconventional references to popular culture. His work slips between the abstract and the familiar, creating a unique and peculiar contemporary visual language.
