Draft:Reds

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


REDS (Graffiti Artist) REDS, also known as Miss Reds, is a Miami-based graffiti artist known for her large-scale murals, bold letter styles, and fearless public art installations. Active since 2007, she is a key figure in Miami’s graffiti scene and a member of the 004 Crew, a recognized graffiti collective.

Early Life and Background Public information about REDS' early life is limited. She began writing graffiti in Miami in the mid-2000s and quickly gained respect for her skills and dedication, especially in a male-dominated subculture.

Career REDS is well known for her work on walls, rooftops, and large public spaces across Miami and beyond. Her reputation grew significantly after her participation in Art Basel Miami 2023, where she collaborated with fellow graffiti artist Mukes on a daring project covering the abandoned Vitas Healthcare building in downtown Miami. Using rappelling techniques, the duo scaled the building’s exterior to complete a massive graffiti takeover, an event captured in drone footage that spread across social media.

The project became part of a larger "graffiti bombing" event where artists from around the world covered the building from top to bottom, turning it into a temporary landmark of street art expression before its planned demolition.

Artistic Style REDS is recognized for:

Bold, sharp lettering styles

Large, high-visibility murals

Traditional graffiti techniques

Fearless, high-risk public art executions

She is also known for challenging gender stereotypes within the graffiti community, emphasizing that her work should be seen for its quality, not her gender.
