Paintings and spray paint, which transcend trends and tell the history of Brazilian Graffiti.

His work permeates various worlds. Flip works through the peaceful coexistence of certain oppositions such as figurative and abstract. his style is seriously high-energy,addressing themes such as nature, pain, pleasure and eroticism.
