About Moose

Moose was an artist.

Moose is the pseudonym of Paul Curtis, a British graffiti artist. Instead of using traditional graffiti methods, Moose creates his art by cleaning dirt and grime off surfaces.

Curtis was involved with the Leeds-based Sound Clash record label, which released records primarily between 1995 and 1999 and was a favorite of Coldcut and Norman Cook. He also promoted the Sound Clash club nights, at which Andrew Weatherall was an early fixture and Tricky made a rare DJ appearance. Curtis has DJ'ed and promoted across the world.

Curtis is also a commercial artist and has been paid to create advertisements for companies such as Xbox and Smirnoff.

Career as a graffiti artist Technique Curtis uses tools such as a shoe brush, water, and manual labor to create freehand drawings and illustrations. He is also known to use a power washer to create intricate images on buildings, under bridges, and in tunnels.

Influence According to many sources, Curtis is the originator of the reverse graffiti technique, which involves creating negative lines and space through dirt to create an image or pattern.
