COKY is a founding member of Düsseldorf based DAC Crew. My first encounter with him was at 40° Urban Art Festival 2015. He and his psychedelic cats nearly brought me out of my mind. Like a Cerberus one of his cats watched the entrance to his room, which was divided in the middle. One half was designed in the eye-popping colours of the cats, until the mad! Inside you felt tranquilized but turning you found the same patterns in deep black and white and came down immediately. Next time I met a piece of this artist, was at 40° Urban Art Festival 2017. The first thing I saw when alighting the tram at Holthausen, was one of his funky cats staring with big yellow eyes at me. I was thrilled – the kitties were back!
