About the artist

The artist Tona is one of the cornerstones of the Hamburg street art scene. In a world that often seems unfair, mean and brutal and people are often blinded, the motivation of the Hamburg artist TONA is to confront this distorted perception in a dreamy, sensual and emotional way. Unlike in the street art world, which is more likely to work with criticism and irony, the artist’s motif world tries briefly to tear viewers out of their usual “0815 thought construct” in order to give peace, peace, joy and a smile. Tona is based in Hamburg, Germany. He started with graffiti in 1999 since 2002 stencils (main focus) since 2008 linocut and silk screen printing.
