Fumo Miles – A Colour Rush and Celebration of Female Power

Since May 2024, a bold and vibrant portrait has adorned the rooftop terrace of Teufelsberg — a mural by Madrid-based artist Fumo Miles. Known for his striking wall paintings, often focused on female faces, Fumo Miles brings his signature style to this location as well: a fusion of vivid colours, hip-hop vibes, and raw urban energy.

The larger-than-life mural features a woman with braided hair, golden accessories, and oversized sunglasses. Her face beams with pure joy — a wide, confident smile that connects directly with the viewer. In her left hand, she holds a spray can, almost like a statement: “I create my own world.” The sunglasses reflect warm light, while the gold chain and hoop earrings reinforce the image of strength, style, and self-empowerment. The background is both dynamic and cosmic, with shades of blue and shimmering effects adding depth and movement.

“You can see from my style that it’s like a portrayed obsession,” says Fumo Miles about his work. “I’m obsessed with colours, with the female face, with human style, and with the hip-hop aesthetic.” That obsession is clear in every line of this piece. At Teufelsberg, the artist deliberately chose to portray a woman — out of three prepared concepts, this one was selected. For him, the mural is mainly about one thing: “I just wanted to showcase my style here.”

Fumo Miles is more than a muralist — he’s also an established tattoo artist, with works seen in Hamburg, Amsterdam, Barcelona, and Madrid. His visual language is unmistakable: bright, intense colours, often combined with blacklight-reactive details, and a strong connection to hip-hop culture.

His contribution to the Teufelsberg street art gallery is not only a visual highlight — it’s a powerful expression of urban identity and a tribute to colour, style, and feminine presence. The blend of technical precision, explosive colour, and bold character makes this one of the most compelling new murals of the year.
