Artist Profiles: Mar
Mar is a graffiti artist/muralist who’s not waiting for the world. He’s actively creating the one he wants to live in. This is what comes out.
Thank you to everyone who pulled up for Leaving Orbit, part of our Black Planet series. You didn’t just attend, you shifted the gravity. 🚀🖤 The room was charged, the dialogue was fearless, and the energy? Unmatched.
But we’re not done disrupting the atmosphere.
Next transmission: Copilots — our Black Book Session launching April 18th. 📚✨
We’re traveling further. Sharper conversations. Bolder imagination. The kind of space that lingers with you long after you leave.
Tap in. Take your seat. Help steer what’s next. Visit BlackPlanet2099.com for tickets.
