Meet fnnch, the enigmatic and elusive street artist who embodies the idea that art should be universally accessible.
In a world where art often feels like an exclusive club, reserved for those with the right connections or hefty bank accounts, this artist is turning that notion on its head.
Much like the more impactful artists of the past, fnnch’s mission was crafted by the city environment. With only about 5% of a city’s residents and visitors touring its modern art museum, fnnch saw an opportunity to bring art to the other 95%. While fnnch’s art has garnered recognition from esteemed publications like The New York Times, Washington Post, and San Francisco Chronicle, his true passion lies in the public streets. His public art can be found in cities such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Chicago, St. Louis, Tel Aviv, and Hong Kong. H
“I wanted to paint something that was positive, inclusive, nostalgic in nature,” fnnch explains. “So that you had this cognitive dissonance where you realize that the piece is illegal and will go away, but you like it, and you want it to stay.”
