Born in Zagreb, capital of Croatia. After finishing the School of Applied Art and Design, start to work as a graphic designer and illustrator. 1995th became a member of Croatian Association of Applied Arts and participates in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad. 1998th he became a member of the Croatian Society of Independent Artists ( HZSU ). Since 1988, engaged in graffiti writing (nick name 2Fast), one of the founders of the Croatian graffiti scene. Take part on many domestic and international exhibitions and jams. Constantly looking for new shapes, moves and techniques, exploring media and materials. Last years combine street graffiti into three-dimensional objects, grounded in street art through use of its characteristic iconography (arrows, numbers and letters) physically depart the two-dimensional surface by penetrating into space and are seen suspended in the motion of curvature and rotation, forming unusual and innovative dimension of graffiti art. ‘2Fast belongs to the small group of graffiti-art population who did not channel its youthful frustrations and potential into quick and frivolous vandalisation of the public property, but rather finished the School of Applied Art and Design and started working as a designer at the age of 18. In that sense, he ended up on the ‘other side of the fence’ and adopted the way of thinking of academically educated artists, such as Keith Haring or Jean-Marie Basquiat, known for finding inspiration in the raw creative energy of graffiti art amateurs and adopting the aesthetic forms and stylistic elements of the genre’, stated dr. sc. Darko Bekić in his foreword to his latest solo exhibition exhibition.
