Dbongz Mahlathi is a street artist from the western region of Johannesburg. His journey into the realm of street art commenced in 2008 upon his arrival in the city to pursue tertiary education. Captivated by the liberty it provided, the vibrant hues, expansive canvases in the form of walls, the self-assurance it nurtured within him, and the capacity to disseminate conceptual messages to the masses, he was deeply drawn to this expressive medium.
