Orticanoodles is the pseudonym of two italian artists from Milan (IT). Wally and Alita in their laboratory, situated in the Ortica district in Milan, work with stencil technique to create drawings, handmade posters and paste up. In their graffiti the faces of “celebrities” are stripped to the bone in a Pop vision, that appear in the streets of all Europe (London, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona) and fill the greys spaces of the cities. Art above all, especially on the walls!
