Tima Radya b. 1988

In the manifesto “All I Know About Street Art,” Radya says: “The wall of the house and the wall of the room are the same wall, it is one inseparable surface. A beautiful house is a house that is beautiful both from the outside and inside. As a person is beautiful -inside and out. The relationship between the inner and the outer world is a key moment for street art.” The dichotomy of internal and external, personal and public,temporal and eternal are central to the artist's philosophy and can be traced in most of his statements.


An important place in the artist's practice is occupied by addressing the themes of the cosmos, the structure of the universe, the shaky compromise of eternity and transience, which can be seen in the works "Where Do We Come From? What Are We?Where Are We Going?" (2017) or “Brighter than us” (2016), a neon phrase glowing against a starry sky.
