Reach

Dubbed as one of the most influential pioneer of Taiwan's street art movement, graffiti artist Reach began his journey since 1995. Best known for his signature Pink Bear & Blue Cat, he employs his clean and clear colors with well-crafted contouring to reflect his persistence in life for perfection. Apart from being an artist, Reach continued to explore and experiment with design, photography and vast layers of media, and collaborated with many of the industry’s heavyweights. In 2008, Reach published his first publication, “ TOOYA! Taiwan Graffiti ”, and has continued to establish his place on the global platform. He also participated to the fullest extent in all of the extremes; whether exhibiting at galleries around the globe, painting on canvases, walls or crafting large-scale murals, he aims to raise culture awareness through his work. In 2014 Reach took parts in POW! WOW! Hawaii and later acted as Creative Director for POW! WOW! Taiwan to help push local street art culture abroad.
