The artist
Né à São Paulo en 1986 et formé aux Beaux-Arts à Buenos Aires, Sam Elgreco puise ses racines dans le graffiti et l'art urbain. Son travail explore l'erreur comme vecteur de création à travers un langage visuel unique, mêlant formes abstraites, géométriques et organiques aux influences de la science-fiction et du déconstructivisme. Pratiquant le dessin, la peinture sur toile, le collage, la fresque murale et l'installation, il a réalisé de nombreux projets à l'international (Buenos Aires, Barcelone, Londres, Tokyo, Miami) pour des espaces publics, des galeries et des institutions.
Born in São Paulo in 1986 and trained in Fine Arts in Buenos Aires, Sam Elgreco’s work is rooted in graffiti and street art. His practice embraces error as a creative process, developing a distinct visual language that fuses abstract, geometric, and organic forms with science fiction and deconstructivist influences. Working across drawing, canvas painting, collage, murals, and site-specific installations, he has completed international projects (Buenos Aires, Barcelona, London, Tokyo, Miami) for public spaces, galleries, and private institutions.
