Mauro Sposito
Hi everyone, I'm Mauro!
I specialized in spray art in Paris in the early 1990s, where I lived for several years and studied drawing at the fine arts studios in Paris, and photography at the Departement Photo du Center Jean Verdier. I also worked as a photography assistant in the studios of the famous Studio Elle magazine in Paris, having had the opportunity to attend numerous photographic sessions both indoors and outdoors alongside great photographers and models. I moved to Sweden in the late 90s and completed my training to become a graphic designer for typography using programs such as Photoshop Illustrator and In Design. Having become aware that the interest in the spray art technique was, and is, enormous, I decided to start teaching this technique by organizing workshops both in art schools as well as in high schools (for younger children) but also in primary schools (for from 5 years of age). The satisfaction this job has given me throughout my life is incalculable, because in addition to allowing me to travel and be able to live anywhere in the world I wanted to go, it has given me the opportunity to perform in streets and squares, thus attracting curiosity of passers-by, transforming these places into open-air galleries where I can sell my works and where "casual" passers-by become customers and/or students at the same time, thus bringing the art school to the square. This method has inspired many people to approach this technique and be able to learn it for free, simply by observing and asking questions. All this has allowed me to live from my art, to sell my works and to be able to teach and disseminate this art much better than if I had followed the traditional paths.
