Zeb is a transdisciplinary lens-based artist critically focusing on the political and artistic intersections that graffiti writing transgresses. In 2019 Zeb traveled to over ten major US cities where he created performances of illegal graffiti writing, documented and shared the processes on social media where he found that graffiti is often welcomed once you pretend or “perform” like you have permission. Zeb developed this critical focus on graffiti in the photography department of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC) under a merit scholarship, which allowed him to focus on the performativity of graffiti and conducted extensive research in the Visual Critical Studies department utilizing autoethnographic strategies to write his thesis ​On the Oppositional Nature of Graffiti.
