The Deer

Portuguese artist Bordalo II creates work under this name as a tribute to his grandfather, fine artist Real Bordalo, whose studio he grew up in. Heavily influenced by his own graffiti background coupled with 8 years of study in a higher level fine arts environment, Bordalo II now creates curbside 3D murals and installations. Cobbled together out of found objects and laced with paint, Bordalo II turns trash into large animals, leaving us to think about the impact of our pollution on the natural world, while leaving his unique fingerprint on the urban art scene.
