ORTICA NOODLES Ortica Noodles is the pseudonym for two Italian artists: Wally and Alita, a very active and tight-knit duo. Both in love with the techniques of stencils, they began to create drawings and handmade posters and quickly made themselves known in the world of street art. Their first actions in the street were stencils, stickers and paste-ups. In their laboratory, situated in the Ortica district in Milan, the Orticanoodles logo started to take shape. With the subversive power of fellow artist Zibe, Orticanoodles began a blazing street campaign with the TSO crew. This soon evolved into a real Urban guerrilla art campaign. The streets are the largest open air museum in the world and everyone has free access to it. Because artworks in the streets are judged by their aesthetic impact and communicative power, the creations of Orticanoodles are based on a code: “Pop”. This basically focusses on the use of stencil techniques as a new form of Graffiti Art.
