We’re still buzzing from the electric energy of MEAR ONE’s recent solo show at Threyda Gallery – a surreal, mind-expanding experience that brought his metaphysical visions to life in vivid, powerful form.
The Golden Age of Gaia - acrylics on canvas
This event spawned a special video where MEAR takes us behind the canvas, offering deep insight into three of his most iconic pieces from the show. With raw passion and razor-sharp clarity, he breaks down the symbolism, technique, and layered meaning behind each work – touching on everything from ancient civilizations to modern consciousness.
The video also gives a glimpse into the atmosphere of the event itself: sweeping shots of the packed gallery, closeups of the artwork, and the vibrant crowd that came to witness one of the most legendary minds in visionary art.

This show marks a milestone not just for MEAR, but for Threyda – continuing our mission to highlight revolutionary artists who blur the boundaries between art, philosophy, and collective transformation.
About MEAR ONE
Known as the “Michelangelo of Graffiti,” MEAR ONE is a legendary Los Angeles-based artist whose work bridges street art, surrealism, and visionary consciousness. Emerging from the West Coast graffiti scene in the early '90s, MEAR evolved into a powerful force in contemporary art – using his brush as a weapon to confront social, political, and spiritual themes. With influences ranging from ancient mythology to quantum physics, his paintings invite viewers to question reality and awaken deeper truths. Over the past three decades, MEAR has built a global following for his complex, large-scale compositions and live painting performances that feel more like ceremonial transmissions than simple art.
