https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XgAEkAWpBCk Zephyr grew up in downtown Toronto and is known for his unique style influenced by cartoons, video games, and punk graphics. From an early age, drawing became a means of escapism for him and he was fascinated by the graffiti he saw in urban environments. His interest in graffiti eventually developed into his own practice, leading to several years of immersion in writing. This experience greatly influenced his artistic style and is reflected in his current work. During the pandemic, Zephyr impulsively moved to Montreal and started living in an industrial loft with a friend. This change in environment led to a new development in his artistic approach, and he took up airbrushing, creating a new way of expressing his own symbols, characters, and patterns on vintage clothing and objects.

Repulsed by the inorganic cleanliness of digital spaces, his creative process emphasizes tactility, physicality, and intuition.
