Odeith was born in 1976 in Damaia (Portugal). He first got his hands on a spray can in the mid of 80s, but it was in the following decade, when graffiti began to spread in Portugal and to emerge outside his birthplace - Carcavelos, that he had his first contact with graffiti and the movement that was beginning. His first experiences were made in the street and on train tracks, and in this way the passion he had always shown for drawing found a new direction and could begin to develop. After a short time, opportunities arose to paint large murals in Damaia, Carcavelos, and several social housing projects, including Cova da Moura, 6 de Maio, and Santa Filomena.

 

From an early age, he revealed a special interest for perspective and shadow, in an obscure style that he came to call "3D sombre", where the compositions, whether landscapes or portraits, messages or tributes, stood out for their realism and technique.

 

In 2005, he was internationally recognized for his innovative incursions into the so-called anamorphic art, where he stood out for the compositions created in perspective painted on different surfaces, such as 90-degree corners or from the wall to the floor, creating an optical illusion effect.

 

In 2008 he decides to close the doors of his tattoo studio (opened in 1999), to work in London.

 

Currently, back in Lisbon, he assumed painting as his main activity, having created murals for national and international companies such as London Shell, Kingsmill, Sport Lisboa e Benfica, Coca-Cola, Estradas de Portugal, Samsung, Lisbon City Hall, Oeiras City Hall, among others.

 

Among the events in which he participated, we highlight: Meeting of Styles (Germany), Museum of Public Art (Louisiana, USA), MuBE - Brazilian Sculpture Museum (São Paulo, Brazil), 1st Bienal del Sur (Panama), 2nd Anniversary of the Museu Coleção Berardo, among others.
