Biography
Originally from Cologne, SeiLeise quickly became a street-art star in Germany. His artist name means "be discreet", no doubt in reference to the nocturnal and illicit activity of his beginnings. Recognized specialist in the non-invasive techniques of reverse graffiti and paste-up, he regularly creates routes in the streets of his city (but also in Berlin, Hamburg, Paris and other European cities) with his poetic and ephemeral works.
Ever since SeiLeise (Tim Ossege, his real name) has been exhibiting in galleries, urban art collectors have been snapping up his very neat original stencils made on different supports: paper, aluminium, wood or concrete. In France, the magazine GraffitiArt paid him a first tribute in its number 68 (February/March 2023).
