Graffiti Artist XPOME Transforms Name into Concrete Skatepark Sculpture

Bulgarian graffiti artist XPOME has created a unique concrete and steel skatepark sculpture spelling out his name. The project, titled 'SKATEABLE,' is part of an exhibition on skateboarding history in Gabrovo, Bulgaria.

The sculpture features five letters: X, P, O, M, and E, each designed to function as a skatepark element. The 'X' serves as a double quarter pipe, and the 'P' includes a rail around a concrete island.

The letter 'O' is designed as Bulgaria's first volcano ramp, while the 'M' acts as a large bench for sliding and grinding. The 'E' is configured as a small triple jumping platform.

The skatepark is located in front of the old building of the Christo and Jeanne-Claude Center, where the exhibition is being held.
