Influenced by his hood's stories and legends, Pablo Gonzalez’s work evolves in a world of villains.In the winter of 1982, at the height of his elev-enth year, Sozyone forges an old Belgian bank note. Two days of meticulous hard work that eventually helps his brother buy a pack of Luck-ies at the local deli. Thinking he’d quickly earn a rep’ as a forger, Pablo decides to study Art, which he achieves with the help of his brother.

He starts at St Luc in 1988 where he meets Smimooz Exel, they decide to launch a band called De Puta Madre. Expelled from St Luc, they’ll end up at Brussels school of Fine Arts from 1990 till 1996. Setting aside the joys of forgery, Pablo discovers the aesthetic vandalism of metropolitan graffiti and officially becomes Sozyone with his crew R.A.B. At a time when Hip Hop was authentic and ‘fresh’, they produce seven albums, several hundred graffitis and play at numerous jams and shows.

In 1996, Sozyone creates the Ultra Boys Inter-national with Gold Jaba, Prince Pro, Turs, Byz and Kool Recto. The crew develops a new form of Graffiti, a brutally refined mix of Marvel Comics, abstract futuristic mathematics, alpha-betical constructivism and facial Picassonic cubism: Pure graffiti vanguard, that dismisses any other form of graffiti that are considered as futile.

In 2004, Sozyone officially becomes Sozyone Gonzalez, showing his art that is sought-after by certain purists. He now does authenticity certifi-cates for all of his paintings, sculptures, illustra-tions and engravings... Maybe a way for him to remember his favorite childhood occupation that required a pair of white latex gloves and a great deal of craftsmanship.
