Jeremy ‘Sobek’ Harrison is Boston born and raised. Dorchester has always been home and Sobek accredits Mattapan Square for teaching him everything Hip Hop, especially Graffiti. Already a young illustrator, Sobek started learning aerosol and his love for arts enhanced, becoming his passion. His first Graffiti piece was painted in 98’ although he has been tagging since 97’. Sobek continues to merge his illustrations and Graffiti into large scale murals of aerosol abstract realism.

 

“My subject matter is nature with organic afro-futuristic Graffiti, depicting realism which often hints to a glimpse of the surreal.  I use aerosol to capture movement and life — making the spray can dance. Calculated imagery is complimented with the spontaneous sprays and movement of the spray can to the wall. Appreciating the roles every creature, large or small, has and their importance."

Sobek’s passion for the arts, youth and neighborhood has led him to start Back Against the Wall. This initiative helps the inner-city community make their words and self-portraits visible on a larger scale, encouraging the positive power of words and familiar faces.
