About

Sebastian B. Ash was born in 1982 in Magdeburg. For him, stylewriting is both a form of expression and a creative outlet. His works are moody, unadjusted, and unique. Individuality and character are his priorities – more important than pleasing others or following trends. Know-how, improvisation, surprise, and variety form the cornerstones of his artistic approach.

Sebastian began stylewriting in 1996 in his hometown of Magdeburg, without realizing the significance of this culture at the time. Although stylewriting already existed there, he initially noticed it only casually. However, when he met someone who painted words that only he could read, Sebastian’s interest in the subject grew. It took some time for the spark to ignite, and he often came close to giving up.

In the first years, he focused intensely on drawing and created only a few smaller wall paintings. He exchanged sketches, ideas, and thoughts with other stylewriters, and the first partnerships emerged. With his first crew, he developed an initial philosophy and delved deeper and deeper into the world of stylewriting.

Numerous commissioned works and exhibitions in the following years improved his technical, conceptual, and artistic methods. Since 2012, Sebastian B. Ash has been living and working as a UX designer and artist in Berlin.
