I'm Laurena Smichs, but my friends call me Lora. I'm a 30-year-old graffiti artist and poet from Berlin. My days are spent painting vibrant murals in abandoned buildings and nights scribbling lyrics on scraps of paper that I hope will one day be set to music. My artistic expression is all about capturing the beauty in chaos and telling stories through images and words that can't be ignored.
I've always been drawn to the raw energy of street art, the way it can bring a community together with a single splash of color or a powerful message scrawled on a wall. For me, graffiti is more than just vandalism - it's a form of activism, a way to speak truth to power and challenge the status quo.
My own body is a canvas, covered in intricate tattoos that tell their own stories of love, loss, and rebellion. I see myself as an extension of my art, a living, breathing work of beauty that defies convention and pushes boundaries. When I'm not creating art or writing poetry, you can find me sipping coffee at a dingy Berlin café, lost in thought and letting the world spin around me.
I grew up in a family of artists, with parents who were both musicians and painters. From a young age, I was encouraged to express myself creatively and never be afraid to take risks or try new things. This freedom has allowed me to develop my own unique style and voice, one that is unapolo
