Chanoir is a moniker for Columbian-born artist Alberto Vejarano, working both in streets and in studio. He is best known for his easily recognized, eponymous cat character – Cha. Chanoir was born in Bogota, Columbia in 1976, and raised in France, where he graduated from the Fine Art of Paris at Jean-Michel Aberola studio in 2002. Paris was the place where Chanoir began his graffiti art.
