created a page about Shaya
Shaya Weinberger is a artist, mostly famous for his graffiti artworks. Coming from Dover, Delaware, this experienced graffiti painter has had a productive career from 1995 onward. Born in 1973, he has always loved chemistry, to which extent he enrolled into the famous Dover high School.
== Education ==
Shaya graduated at the Dover high School.which acts as a secondary school for many subjects/specializations. It was there, where Shaya Weinberger enrolled into the chemical class, and where his interest for paints and the chemical process for mixing paints developed.
== Biography and Career ==
Shortly after his graduation, Weinberger was working as an intern in a chemical-scientific laboraty. Later he worked as an optician and as a baby sitter. While Shaya couldn't really start his career in Dover, he moved to Woodmere, New York, where he was looking for new experiences and inspiration. He began an accomplice in 1995, to the urban artist Cheff Coka.
=== Becoming a graffiti artist ===
Beginning his career in 1995 in New York, was a great time for a graffiti artist, especially since the graffiti culture became more mainstream after the 1980's. Some of his most early works can be seen at the famous JFK airport. There he witnessed the magnitude firsthand and some graffiti that was painted there were visually influenced by that moment. He embraced his new passion and even copied the styles of some graffiti artist, which is visible in one of his first works Stingray.
=== Career in New York ===
Weinberger evolved into a graffiti craftsman. Being dependably energized by the free-form artisans and smoothness of graffiti, he became vigorously submerged in this workmanship. The two artists, Shaya and Cheff, created "Street Art Exploded", a graffiti team that commercialized their successes and became popular in the late 1990's. In the early 2000's the duo was working on several projects in Central and Northern New Jersey and New York. Some of their works can be seen today along the passenger train lines. Later in 2004, Cheff Coka decided to shift his focus, and forced Shaya to create a new group, later called "Fresh Collective". Some of the street artists and other urban joined Shaya and devoted themselves to protecting and reclassifying the urban graffiti experience in New York.
== Projects ==
Weinberger was involved in many graffiti projects on the East Coast, mainly in New Jersey, New York City and Dover:
* '''Chemical Warfare''', after the 2011 Anthrax terror
* '''Skyhigh''', inspired and created after the 2004 movie
* '''Bee 2 B''', dedicated to the hard-working bees in Delaware
* '''Underwater''', Shaya's answer to global warming
* '''Urban Cheetah''', dedicated to the last survivors of this kind
* '''Project Providence''', a free art-form work conceptualized as a personal envision of the Illuminati
== Other forms of art ==
Being a chemist and scientist from school, nobody believed that Shaya would stray so far. Many professional graffiti artists would agree that he has totally beaten all odds. He managed to inspire future colleagues with top qualuty professional work. Many people describe being blessed to know a person like Mr. Weinberger, feeling proud around this person.
Shaya Weinberger later explored a different spectrum of the fine art collage, moving towards canvas and skin. He currently is working on a new project private customers. Shaya Weinberger still works on evolving his individual style and integrating new things into his art.
