Claudia Walde is better known under her pseudonym MadC. Her artistic evolution started with graffiti more than 20 years ago and made her one of the world’s top street artists known for her abstract murals ‘boasting of energy and depths’. Her works can be found on her collaboration with URBAN NATION on Project M/11 in 2017.
Born in Bautzen in the former GDR in 1980 and as many other artists entered the street art scene via graffiti as a teenager. She graduated from two universities in graphic design, but is still in a deep connection to the street with her colourful murals. Her graffiti background undoubtedly influences her artworks, unique colours, dynamic calligraphy, composition and layering. Though they do not use a direct graffiti language. MadC’s works can be seen worldwide, have been covered by various international magazines and newspapers and were exhibited in Europe and the U.S.
