Zilon

Zilon started out as a graffiti artist when Keith Haring was gaining popularity in New York. Zilon was doing the same type of stuff but because he was based in Montreal, he never got the same recognition. Zilon is a painter musician. The music can be heard in the background every one of his paintings; music which is not necessarily noisy, but barely perceptible…atmospheric. To look at his work is to allow oneself to hear the music. This is key in approaching the spirit of Zilon; the spirit that envelops him while he is holding his brush.
