Producer
André Lourenço (aka Kajaman), born in 1976 in the State of Rio de Janeiro, is a self-taught artist. In 2006, he created the MOF (Meeting Of Favela) in Baixada Fluminense, a movement recognized as the largest graffiti task force ever carried out in the world. In 2008, he had his recognition accentuated with the nomination for the Prize Hutuz, the main cultural award of Brazilian Hip Hop. Their participation in important social projects helped young people to recognize the overcoming around their personal skills, creating interaction and market possibilities.
