RETNA is an American contemporary artist known for his distinctive calligraphic script, which merges influences from hieroglyphics, Old English typography, Arabic letterforms and street graffiti. Born Marquis Lewis in 1979 in Los Angeles, he developed a visual language that is instantly recognisable across murals, paintings and large-scale installations.
RETNA’s work bridges street culture and fine art, offering rhythmic, architectural compositions that feel both ancient and futuristic.
