HIT THE NORTH ARTISTS 2025
JACK LACK
GERMANY






Born and raised in Stuttgart, Cologne-based artist Jack Lack has been repeatedly drawn to the interplay between nature and the urban landscape. His artworks highlight this contrast and narrate stories of human interaction with the natural environment. Often inspired by biological research or local stories about flora and fauna, his work reflects relevant topics for people living close by.
A key aspect of Jack’s artistic approach is integrating his works into the urban environment. His roots in the graffiti art scene are the origin of his signature style: the softness of edges blending into wide fades, creating an impression of depth. This technique counters the imposing scale of figural murals. Instead, it creates calm, inviting scenes with a pleasing appeal, offering a guideline for the viewer's attention while leaving plenty of space for imagination.
