Glazed Graffiti - Yuri van Poppel

About SunkOne
SunkOne (Yuri van Poppel, 1975) is a Dutch designer, contemporary artist and graffiti writer. Since drawing was his way to express himself as a child, he was instantly hooked when graffiti came from New York to Europe in the mid-eighties. Seeing his name up written in stylized letters was an extremely powerful feeling to him at that age -and it still is. After studying art history and design in the UK and The Netherlands, he worked in design and advertising winning multiple awards for his creative work. Simultaneously he participated in various national and international projects and exhibitions with his graffiti work. With Glazed Graffiti, he is the first ever to spray ceramic glazes using custom built spray cans, capturing the raw energy of street writing in a new medium.
