Crey 132

Crey 132 is a French graffiti writer and painter, born in 1973 in Champigny-sur-Marne. Hip-hop led him to graffiti, and watching Mode2 paint a wall in his neighbourhood in 1989 settled it. He founded the Ligne 2 Mire association in 1998, then joined the 132 crew, which gave him his name. From 2000 he also worked as a graphic designer, producing record sleeves and brand identities, before turning to canvas in 2012. His spray-can work is precise and close to realism, and animals are a recurring subject, notably in his "Life" series. In 2022 he painted "S'accomplir c'est se Dépasser", a mural of athletes in Herblay.
