Banana Graffiti Art Project

Founder and Creative Director

"Banana Graffiti Artist Marta Grossi Plays With Her Food"

Even though bananas seem like a completely random and bizarre place for art, Grossi admits she finds inspiration all around her. “I always found inspiration from simple and ordinary things,” she says. “A signal on the street, a song, a tender and elderly couple at the park, soy-sauce stains on a table. Everything can be inspiration and change our perspective. I love to see things from different angles.” For Grossi, bananas are a perfect medium for art because they are “cheap, organic and easy to find almost everywhere.”
