About the Artist:
DO (Nikunj Prajapati) is a multi-talented urban artist from Ahmedabad, India, renowned for his vibrant murals that have graced walls across India and internationally in cities like Stockholm, Colombo, Dubai and Abu Dhabi. He has contributed to major cultural events in India, including the St+art India Festivals, Kochi Biennale, and the Serendipity Arts Festival.
His art, which draws inspiration from science, nature, and people, is known for being thought-provoking and inspiring. His style spans figurative and abstract forms, and he experiments with diverse materials, including retro-reflectives, PU foam and thermoplastic paint.
His self-proclaimed tag, 'TRYTRYTRY, challenges the notion of vandalism and serves as a call for positive change. The recurring motif "treetreetree" rendered in vivid greens and moss serves as a call to action for environmental protection.
He has collaborated with renowned brands such as Meta, Miral, Blossa, Noon.com, PayPal, Levi's, Gucci, Waste Warriors, and Pepsi. He has also partnered with social media giants like Instagram and Google for captivating event campaigns, often executed in cooperation with St+art India & Xxl Collective.
