"Hitnes hails from Rome, and his work spans genres, including graffiti, illustration, and fine art. Since 2012 he has taught screen-printing courses at Rome’s European Institute of Design (IED), as well as workshops in muralism, including a masterclass in Adelaide, Australia. His work can be found in publications in Italy, France, Spain, Germany, Belgium, England, and Australia; in the past 10 years he has participated in group shows and art events across Europe, Australia, Mexico, and China. His work with the Audubon Mural Project capped a three-month odyssey called “The Image Hunter,” where he retraced John James Audubon’s steps around America and completed 15 murals across the country.
