MEAR ONE (KALEN OCKERMAN) HAS BEEN AT THE FOREFRONT OF LA'S GRAFFITI AND MURAL CULTURE FOR NEARLY FOUR DECADES. HE IS FAMOUS FOR HAVING PIONEERED THE MELROSE GRAFFITI ART MOVEMENT IN THE LATE 80S AND IS CONSIDERED BY MANY TO BE LA'S MOST PROLIFIC PUBLIC MURALIST. EARLY ON IN HIS CAREER, MEAR GAINED RECOGNITION FOR BUILDING THE BRIDGE BETWEEN GRAFFITI ART AND FINE ART. �A PROPHET IN HIS OWN COUNTRY? WE MIGHT SMILE, BUT THE COMPARISON IS NOT THAT FAR-FETCHED. HIS HIGHLY COMMUNICATIVE VISUAL ART REQUIRES THE SAME KEEN ATTENTION AS ANY NARRATIVE WOULD.� - MEAR ONE __ MEARONE.COM __ @MEARONE __ @MEAR_ONE __ @MEARONEHD
