Igor Frayo
Russia - UAE
My name is Igor Frayo. I am a graffiti artist and have been painting since 2006. Originally, I am from cold Russia. 'Frayo' is my art pseudonym which I had taken at the beginning of my artistic path. For 17 years, my passion for graffiti almost immediately turned into a profession, which greatly influenced the technique and manner of painting.
Every year, MES CREW and I do more than 30 projects on interior and exterior painting, regularly we take part in different exhibitions, art events and competitions - such as BRED, Stenograffia, Combonation, Street Vision and many others.
I am also keen on painting on canvases and this year I had an exhibition in Dubai.
2 years ago I began to work in 3D modeling and Unreal Blueprints, and I actively implement 3D in my graffiti and art works.
