Meet No Outline | Tattooist & Street Artist

We had the good fortune of connecting with No Outline and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi No, do you have some perspective or insight you can share with us on the question of when someone should give up versus when they should keep going?
I can’t let me to give up. I take every clue or project that I’ve had to the cusp. Beleaving in each of my abilities, even if it is not in there. I learn necessary things in different fields to make it real. I always keep going because I have no more options. Evolution just born from inconformity. That’s why I don’t give up in every obstacle that arises, ‘cause I see that as learning thing yo keep reaching something higher and better

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
My work the last years is based on the intervention of public space with work art, influenced by the teaching that graffiti gave me years ago, the main reason why I came to this proposal is due to a medical case in which my vision was compromised and I could not see for two months after a corneal transplant and ring implant, added to the prohibition of the use of aerosol, I promised myself that if I could regain my sight again I would give it all to art and the street as appreciation way, this developed in multiple ways of street intervention that currently keeps growing, sometimes I think that I am only a means and that my work continues to advance on its own, I feel that little by little I am getting closer to leaving a grain of sand in something as immense as the line of art, I think an artist must promote and make the next decade of the arts even stronger and more valuable than the previous one and sometimes we must sacrifice more than what we receive to achieve this, one day I just left my works on the street fulfilling a promise to life, today it is a gift for my city and every place I visit in the world.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I would take them to see the entire city and its countless street art. Bogotá is at the cusp. of graffiti and street art. It will surely be an experience you will never forget.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I owe much of the support and motivation to my grandmother Cecilia,I always dreamed of one day being able to show her where I would go with my work, I still have a lot to learn and show, but to date she is the proudest person and the only one who saw in person every sacrifice I made to be where I am.
