Live Graff at Elementz 26th April

London’s FDC will be showcasing some live graff at the launch of Elementz in Room 2 on 26th April at Rhythm Factory.

He’ll be producing some exclusive new designs on canvass and these will be available for sale on the night.

As the name suggest, the event represents all the classic elements of hip hop culture, providing a platform for talented artists in all the disciplines to shine.

Graff artists have made a major impact over the decades from album cover and hip hop clothing designs, through to the official current London Olympics logo. Our own logo was designed by The DR1NE. A highly skilled art form in its own right and worthy of its place on 26th April, where FDC will be joined in Room 2 by DJ Snuff, DJ Johny Garcia, a b-boy battle and open mic session.

Meanwhile in Room 1 there will be dj sets by Sarah Love, 279, Mr Thing, Snips, and performances by Caxton Press, Genesis Elijah, Ether L Banks, Naba Napalm, all hosted by Mystro.

You can see examples of FDC’s work in our Graffiti page HERE
