Rafael Ferreira

Brazilian-born graffiti writer and contemporary mural artist recently moved from Brooklyn, New York. Rooted in graffiti culture, his work explores the intersection of lettering, color, and public space, transforming urban environments through bold compositions and expressive forms. Originally from Indaiatuba, São Paulo, Brazil, Rafael began painting in the mid-2000s. Alongside his studio practice, Rafael has led and executed large-scale mural and advertising projects across major U.S. cities, overseeing crews, and delivering high-profile public artworks for national brands. His experience painting across Brazil and the United States has shaped a distinctive visual language that balances technical precision with spontaneity while staying true to the authenticity of graffiti.
