You can see a triptych by graffiti artist Ami 72 here. Named Ami and born in 1972, he is now in his fifties but continues to express himself through graffiti, his lifelong passion, even as he maintains a separate professional career. His signature motif is Lego figures, reflecting his perspective that life is like Lego, with each of us having the power to shape our existence. Interestingly, Ami 72 exclusively decorates ruins. He stands against the defacement of new buildings, preferring to beautify those already damaged.
