Leopoldo "Leo" Costanzo F., born in March 9, 1983, in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil. He was born with the skill and personal challenge of creating. He began drawing from a remote childhood, and soon he sought new ways of expressing himself, whether with paints, wood, brushes ... Since very early he had contact with the skateboard, and consequently with all the Street Culture and local urban scene, which led to an enormous influence of Graffiti and Street Art, leading him to develop the technique of using spray in his artistic production. Later, with the goal of increasingly larger and more complex creations, he entered the Architecture course. Graduated in 2006, by Uniritter University, in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil. And later postgraduate in Project Management in 2017, the IERGS Institute in Porto Alegre, Brazil, allied this knowledge for the development of projects that make possible the production of larger murals and local collective panels. As Visual Artist has in Urban Art, and in the use of spray, since 2002, his main way of artistic manifestation. In addition to the graffiti and murals, he has already exposed his works in national collective exhibitions such as "The City, the Nature and the Citizen", at Santander Cultural/RS, in 2008; "Núcleo Urbanóide", at the IAB (Insituto dos Arquitetos do Brasil)/RS, in 2013 and international exhibitions such as "Self-Portrait" exhibition, at the Raymod-Lasnier dexposition Center, Canada in 2011 and the Out North Gallery Anchorage, Alaska in 2012.
