Danila Shmelev - also known as Shozy - took his first steps in graffiti in the early 2000s. After a period of experimenting with different styles and aesthetics, he has been developing his art around 3D and optical illusion since 2010, allowing him to participate in many festivals around the world, including Dubai, the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium.

His studio work, more conceptual but maintaining his origins in 3D and optical illusion, has propelled him through his originality and mastery as a rising value in contemporary and urban art. His canvases executed in oil and acrylic, with his personal and peculiar style, between abstraction and figuration, are the result of long-term research into the effects of light, volume and plastic material with incredible realism.
