Our story
Art. Education. Community. Change.
VanDali01 is the work of Chris Vandali — an artist using murals and graffiti workshops to create space for expression, challenge stereotypes and bring people together.
The artist
Chris Vandali, the hand behind VanDali01.
Chris Vandali is a graffiti and mural artist working under the name VanDali01. Based in Thames Ditton, he's spent over 15 years chasing ideas that sit somewhere between realism, graffiti and imagination.
What started with spray cans on city walls has grown into two things he loves — bespoke murals for businesses, schools and homes, and hands-on graffiti workshops open to all ages and skill levels.
Through his workshops, Chris aims to do more than teach technique — to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes and bring people together through making. Every wall and every session is painted by hand, and made to last.
Mission
Make art belong to everyone.
VanDali01 exists to show that art isn't reserved for galleries or a select few. Graffiti culture, at its best, is open, democratic and human — and our work is about extending that openness to every wall and every person who wants to create.
We believe creativity builds confidence, expression builds community, and a painted wall can change how a whole room — or a whole street — feels.
What we believe
A few principles
Made by hand
Every wall and every canvas is drawn and sprayed by hand — no transfers, no shortcuts.
