Most graffiti artists like to use a tag that can be easily associated with their work by those who encounter it, but E1000 art is triangular in shape and sports massive fingerprints as a form of identification.

E1000 is a well-known artist within the Madrid underground scene and is known to use a [triangle as a calling card](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triangle-hanger); he or she does this by always following the same design size and shape without ever branching bigger or to a different shape.

When I think of [urban graffiti](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-street-art-1), overtly large pieces that ooze color come to mind, but E1000s art is rather demure in style and doesn't look at all out of place in the [various locations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kriskadecor-1) that they have placed them. Perhaps this is the evolution of graffiti and we'll see more refined works in the future.
