Boris Tellegen, aka Delta, is an artist currently living and working in Amsterdam, where he was born in 1968. Tellegen originated as a graffiti artist in the 1980’s, working towards breaking the dimensionality of the flat surface he was painting on. The artist then learned how to push the depth of his work while studying Industrial Design Engineering at TU Delft until 1994. The knowledge that Tellegen acquired while studying architecture and design led him to break the plain with sculpturally driven works, rather than tags. Recently, Tellegen has continued creating mixed media sculptures through commissions in his native Netherlands.
