ZHONG CHENG

OG Slick OG SLICK ( b.1967 )

Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, this artist moved to Los Angeles at the age of 19. Fascinated by American and Japanese pop culture during childhood, they gained fame through graffiti art and also ventured into commercial art, extending their creations to clothing. Their products are characterized by a unique street style and a quirky sense of humor. Even with commercial projects, they have never strayed far from the raw graffiti aesthetic. Their work ranges from graffiti, designing clothing and toys, to installation art and public sculpture, exploring the intersection of pop culture, human behavior, and natural decay. They have founded several brands: 3rd Rail, Fuct, Shaolin Worldwide, and DSS1ZIT.
