"Using techniques cultivated from urban influences and concepts spawned from my
admiration for Salvador Dali and obsession with the Pop Cultures of the 80's and
90's, my goal is to bring to fruition a visual experience that is honest &
hopefully profound." - ·Tai·
·Tai· is an American/Samoan mixed-media artist and award winning filmmaker from
Salt Lake City, Utah with international recognition. His admiration for the arts
at an early age led to experimentation with many art-forms including tattoo,
graffiti, comic illustration, sculpture, music and film. His most recent body of
work uniquely combines the use of ballpoint pen, spray paint, acrylics and
marker inks and provides a
refreshing visual experience. Subscribing to the defiant and raw spirit of urban
influences, Tai has forged an unlikely union between the liveliness of Street
art and the conventionalism of Fine Art.
Tai has sold thousands of his original pop art pieces worldwide and recently he
has been touring with his wife and two children, selling his work at art
festivals across the nation, while generating a wide variety of collectors and
winning a multitude of awards for the accomplishments he's made with his craft.
In 2010 Tai wrote, produced and directed the feature film Darkroom which is now
