about
The collective B-47 is formed by the artists Dênis Rodrigues de Freitas and Tiago Ramos Gasques. Both started on graffiti in the late 90’s and since then they’ve been collaborating on each other’s work, as well as they keep their own individual projects.
In 2005, they formed the B-47 inspired by the name of the transit mass line that serves the region where they live in Santo André | São Paulo | Brazil. The collective proposal is to unite the individual styles of each artist to create an unique composition.
