He entered the graffiti scene through encouragement from a friend, marking the beginning of a journey into a subculture that was gaining global appreciation. Despite early struggles and doubts, the evolving popularity of graffiti art provided opportunities for growth. Gimiks Born’s skills further developed through dedication and practise and soon after her went on to create large scale murals.
