For some artists, Atlanta is a giant canvas. And that seems to be true for VAYNE, one of our city’s most notorious, admiree and internationally recognized graffiti-style writers. You’ve likely seen his name in huge block letters, sprayed or paint-rolled on some of Atlanta’s seemingly impossible-to-reach billboards and overpasses.

“All Over the Place” is the first-ever solo exhibition of VAYNE’s art, and it opens Cat Eye Creative on Nov. 9. VAYNE joined managing producer Kim Drobes on “City Lights” to discuss the lifestyle of an anonymous icon.

VAYNE’s identity was masked for the interview, his voice distorted and pitch-shifted, at the artist’s request.
