His work explores his heritage as well as his background as an artist of the street and how it fits as well as clashes within todays world. Though cultures may clash, Then is able to incorporate chaotic themes and communicate them in a visually complementary way. With continued growth and an expanding work of art, Then’s work continues to gain interests from galleries, art collectors, media and companies alike.
