Black Magic Painting

Doped Out M was born in Rome in 1988, in the suburbs (Nomentana), where he was fascinated by the underground hip-hop and graffiti scene. In 2005, he decided to join this movement by illegally writing on the walls of Rome, creating colorful pieces and bombings in the streets. Despite several complaints, he continued his activity by transitioning to painting on canvas. He graduated in graphics from the institute in Via Sarandi in Rome and worked as a graphic designer. In 2019, seeking more space and freedom from metropolitan traffic, he moved to Benevento. This relocation allowed him to set up a comprehensive study plan, enabling him to develop his ideas more effectively.
