Luca De Gradi was born in Como in 1981.
He trained at the Art Institute and immediately developed a creative need that materialized in his first experiments in the field of graffiti, which he cultivated for about ten years and which ensured him a certain notoriety.
A self-taught artist, his artistic practice underwent several evolutions.
Experimentation continued and he abandoned the dry language of graffiti to enthusiastically join painting.
His artistic maturation passed through different phases: from abstraction to figurative tests, from the use of spray cans to more complex executive techniques with the aid of the camera, plotters and video projectors to arrive at today where monochrome represents the closest thing to his true nature.
