96 Boiz

96 Boiz Art Collective

96 Boiz NYC is an independent art collective formed by artists born in 1996 and united through a shared passion for contemporary visual expression. Working primarily within neo-expressionist and urban-inspired aesthetics, the collective has developed a distinctive language built on strong contours, energetic compositions, and emotionally charged imagery.

The group’s work gained international visibility through digital platforms, where its earliest collections reached millions of views within a short period. This growing audience helped establish 96 Boiz NYC as a recognizable name among emerging contemporary art communities.

Led by Orchun96 (Orcun Mert), the collective embraces artistic freedom, experimentation, and a hands-on creative process. Paintings are characterized by bold lines, expressive figures, fragmented forms, and vibrant visual rhythms that reflect the energy of modern culture.

Music, street aesthetics, contemporary painting, and the creative spirit of New York City all contribute to the identity of the project. Rather than following temporary trends, 96 Boiz NYC focuses on building a consistent visual universe with its own symbols, characters, and artistic vocabulary.

The collective’s signature contour style has become a defining element of its work. Dynamic movement, layered compositions, and raw emotional expression remain central to every collection. Each piece is designed to stand on its own while also contributing to a broader artistic vision.

Today, 96 Boiz NYC continues to create original artworks that celebrate imagination, individuality, and independent creativity. The collective remains committed to authenticity, experimentation, and the belief that art should be accessible, expressive, and deeply connected to contemporary life.
