- Details: WOOL – Covilhã Urban Art Festival, that merged in 2011 in Covilhã, for various reasons beyond our control, didn’t get more support or funding for a second edition, so obviously we searched for other geographies, new projects and new formats. The first place that welcome us was LXFactory in Lisbon (as Rua Rodrigues Faria, 103 – www.lxfactory.com), undeniably the most creative and artistic center of the capital, which was installed in an old flourmill and later printer industry, a place filled with old and gray facades. The first edition of the activities baptized as WOOL ON TOUR occurred in may 2012 and the format designed was to challenge a group pf artists from different backgrounds and professional experiences, to work side by side for a week, sharing a whole variety of practices and techniques.
- Biography: The Caver, also known as Nuno Barbedo. Born in 1983 in Lisbon, has spent the last 16 years painting its suburbs. He’s designer by profession, but the street is his favorite office. His drawings are characterized by his basic trait, although full of hidden secrets. His work ranges from bombing to gallery, going through all that is needed in between, without complexes. His style has been undergoing constant updates, and today, he likes in enigmatic compositions and sometimes sarcastic, personify life in general.
