An ABC book of removable postcards by world-renowned graffiti artist Nasimo. Each letter features a different feline, from wily to wicked, clever to curious, skittish to shy, to purrfectly content. Splashed with colour that vividly captures each distinct personality, Nasimo's art depicts these mighty and most mysterious of animals - animals that one loves and hates at the same time. In fact, many see Nasimo as a cat himself, scratching his art out in the streets.
Born in 1979 in a small country-town named Targovishte, in Bulgaria, we know him under the names Naste or Nasimo. He started spraying Aerosol paint on walls in 1995 together with graffiti artist Scum and a while later they form LBC (Los Bastardos Crew) - one of the first and most brilliant graffiti crews in Bulgaria. In 2000, Nasimo established a new crew - NTN - together with Ndoe (hiphop group DRS) and they begin making some amazing art that is a mixture between traditional and graffiti style. Nasimo participates in Meeting Of Styles - in Bulgaria, Greece, Germany and Poland. He takes part in almost every graffiti and street art event that take place in these countries.
