ROA

ROA (born c. 1976) is the pseudonym of a graffiti artist from Ghent, Belgium. He has created works on the streets of cities across Europe and the United States.

ROA generally paints wild animals (such as rats) or birds (such as crows) in black and white.

In 2010 ROA came to particular notice in the UK when Hackney council threatened to paint over one of his paintings, a 3.5m high rabbit. The rabbit had been legally painted on the wall of a recording studio in Hackney Road, London. A campaign was launched to keep the mural, by the building's owners and local residents, forcing the council to change its mind.

In August 2012 ROA took part in the See No Evil street art festival in Bristol, England, creating a two-storey high fox on the side of a building.

    @gauthierdumonde: Thank you for helping me out with the artists name. We talked about, I remember very good. You had the idea that I saw a graffity from a famous street art artist. Glad you were right. ROA in the streets of Brussels, wow
