Gabriel Dubois, 25, is a Canadian artist 
currently residing in Hamburg. For the last ten 
years he has been primarily focused on graffiti 
and street related painting and installations. 
Due to his passion for traveling he has managed 
to make his mark across canada, europe and asia. 
Recent paintings and installations continue to 
exploit elements of graffiti writting, but more 
importantly explore the possibilities between it 
and other text driven imagery as well as its 
relationship to abstract painting.

Other is a high school drop out from Canada who 
spent his youth skateboarding and drawing on the 
streets until the sun came up... over the last 20 
years his street art as transformed from window 
breaking to discovering art through graffiti and 
back to window breaking again....the biggest body 
of his work travels the freight train system of 
north america ..appearing in train yards from 
montreal to mexico city...a recycle bin full of 
messages in a bottle seen by old hobos train 
workers and mountain goats and old railway 
ghosts...so every once in awhile he likes to do 
work that can be seen outside of a 
trainyard....this is it..
