D*Face, whose real name is Dean Stockton, prominent British street artist known for his unique approach to urban art, is the author of the book. Born in 1978 in London, he has become one of the most prolific contemporary urban artists of his generation. His work is heavily influenced by pop art, drawing inspiration from artists like Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol. D*Face's art features dysfunctional characters that satirize various aspects of society, particularly our obsessions with fame, over-consumption, and materialism. His murals and artworks often serve as thought-provoking social commentaries, adding depth and critical perspective to the urban art scene. Over the years, D*Face has made significant contributions to the street art movement. He established StolenSpace, a gallery in Shoreditch, and held his first major London solo exhibition, Death & Glory, in October 2006. His artistic journey spans 17 years, reflecting his evolution as an artist and his ongoing influence on the world of urban and contemporary art.
