Description

He painted hundreds of pieces in all 5 boroughs as well as Florida, Connecticut, Ohio, New Jersey, North Carolina and, Holland. Over the course of the past 5 years Meres transformed the destroyed (tagged and vandalized) building into an outdoor museum called 5 Pointz, The Institute of Higher Burnin™.

Some of his clientele include: Def Jam, NY Knicks, Swatch, ABC, Coors, Heineken, Deutsche Bank, Grey Hound, Glamour Magazine, Big Red, Wall Street Rising, M.A.D.D.
