Axis & Atlas: Mythic Roots of Urban Art Axis & Atlas, a collaborative street art duo hailing from Athens, Greece, represent more than just spray paint on concrete; they embody a fusion of ancient mythology and contemporary artistic expression.

The Lifeline
Scroll through axis, atlas's working life — artwork by artwork, chapter by chapter — from the earliest dated work to the last. Each thumbnail is pinned at its exact year on the gold axis.
Chapters — Career Periods
The ribbon is divided into shaded bands, one per career chapter. Each chapter groups axis, atlas's works by their historical period — early training, mature practice, final years.
Thumbnails — Dated Works
Every thumbnail is pinned at its precise creation year. A thin gold thread drops from the image to its exact point on the axis. Larger frames mark the artist's masterpieces by rank.
Colour Band — Movement Drift
The gradient bar beneath the axis shifts colour as the dominant art movement changes over time — from the warm golds of the early period through the deeper tones of maturity. It fills progressively as you scroll.
